Rootstocks Part 3: Almond Rootstocks with Jarvis-Shean, Duncan, and Connell

UCCE Advisors Katherine Jarvis-Shean (Yolo-Solano-Sacramento Counties), Roger Duncan (Stanislaus County), and Joe Connell (Emeritus Butte County) come together to discuss current available almond rootstocks and the importance of selecting rootstock for growers’ orchard-specific challenges.
