With more than 200,000 orchard trees, the district of Ludwigsburg continues to be one of the strongholds of orchard cultivation, with many stakeholders putting their heart and soul into the topic of orchards. This year, the cold, wet spring and the odd late frost night have led to very different harvest prospects in the district's orchards: Where one orchard owner can expect only a small yield, another a few kilometers away can look forward to fully bearing trees. Many treetops now shine from afar with their red-cheeked or yellow-green fruit.
