Fruit Tree Yield Calculator

Work out fruit tree yield instantly with clear inputs, formula shown and shareable results.

About Fruit Tree Yield Calculator

Orchard yield is trees x fruits per tree x average fruit weight. Only the fraction meeting size, colour and blemish standards earns the table price; the rest goes to processing or waste, so the marketable percentage often matters more to revenue than the gross tonnage.

Formulas

Fruit yield

Gross yield (kg) = trees x fruits per tree x fruit weight (g) / 1000

Marketable

Marketable = gross x marketable grade %

Worked example

With the default values below, Fruit Tree Yield Calculator returns Marketable Yield of 10,710.00. Change any input above and every figure here is recalculated in your browser.

Assumptions and limits

The result is derived only from the 4 inputs listed above. Anything not among them is not part of the calculation.
In particular, this calculator does not take inflation, tax, fees or charges or compounding frequency into account.
Figures are rounded for display to 3 decimal places, so totals built from several rounded parts can differ slightly from the unrounded arithmetic.

How these calculators are built and tested is described on the Methodology page. If a figure looks wrong, please report it.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I estimate fruits per tree before harvest?

Count fruit on a representative sample of at least ten trees, ideally on marked scaffold limbs scaled to the whole canopy, and average. Count after the natural June drop for reliability.

Does thinning reduce total yield?

Total weight may fall slightly but fruit size, colour and grade-out improve, usually raising revenue. Thinning also promotes return bloom and evens out biennial bearing.
