I don't know if somebody here has some experience in growing avocado and can give some basic info.
This is a preliminary insight as I might buy a few dozens tareas nearby San Cristobal and some people told me to grow aguacates.
Although the land has a slop (deslinde) being in a montaneous area, I see many avocado trees around, so the soil must be OK.
Are there any tree nurseries?
Is it better to grow for local or export market?
What are the varieties suitable?
What are the tree density/tarea?
yield/tree, tarea acre or hectare?
How many years to get a tree yielding?
What are the annual crops that combine well with avocado growing?
I have had some local info (which sounds "too good to be true") and web search, but I would like to get reliable info from people with hands-on experience.
Thank you for any info you might provide,
Barnab?
