Full Orchard Development

From bare land to a growing orchard.

Discuss your development

We coordinate your orchard development from initial layout and set-out through construction, planting and handover, with the scope agreed around your site.

The ten stages

  1. A drone hovering above a new orchard development while a team member at the back of a ute holds the controller, with young vines in green guards and shelter cloth behind.

    01 Fly & Design

    Through Maguire Aerial Mapping, we capture the site and plan the orchard layout, including rows, posts, access and shelters.

  2. A team member setting up an RTK GNSS receiver on a tripod beside a black Maguire Industries ute, under a shelter belt.

    02 RTK Set-out

    We mark the agreed layout on the ground, ready for construction.

  3. A skid steer loader with a post attachment working between orchard posts and wires.

    03 Full Ramming

    We ram the orchard posts and structural components into position.

  4. A team member in an orange Maguire Industries top reaching up with both hands to a grey steel ag-beam across the top of a new orchard structure.

    04 Ag-beam Installation

    We install the ag-beam system across the orchard structure.

  5. Close view of a team member in a Maguire Industries top using a chain strainer to tension a wire on a new orchard structure against a blue sky.

    05 Irrigation, Leader & Canopy Wires

    We install irrigation, leader and canopy wires, with associated cables, anchors and end assemblies as required.

  6. A young vine with fresh reddish leaves, tied to a bamboo stake in a green guard, with a grassed row of the new orchard structure behind.

    06 Fast-track Systems

    We install the specified fast-track system to support young vine establishment.

  7. A team member in an orange branded top hammering white shelter cloth to a timber post on the edge of a new orchard block.

    07 Vertical Shelters

    We construct vertical shelter systems to suit the orchard layout and site requirements.

  8. Aerial view along the edge of a white overhead orchard cover, with a worker in a yellow boom lift adjusting the netting above the canopy.

    08 Overhead Covers

    We install overhead cover systems and supporting infrastructure to the agreed specification.

  9. Looking down a grassed row of a new orchard: timber posts, a steel beam and the canopy wires overhead, with young vines in green guards along both sides.

    09 Plant Holes & Planting

    We drill plant holes and complete planting as part of the agreed scope.

  10. Aerial view over a new orchard development, its blocks lined with white vertical shelter cloth, looking out across other orchards and shelter belts to the horizon.

    10 Handover

    We check the completed work against the agreed scope and hand over the development.

Stages and systems are tailored to the agreed project scope.

From our work
