Soil
Loamy, well-drained soils with a pH of 5.5-6.5 are best for apple propagation. Soils should not be water-logged or have compacted subsoil. Mulch mixed with organic material can help to retain soil moisture.
Climate
Apple is a temperate crop that thrives in temperatures between 21 and 24C. They can also be grown in higher altitudes (1500-2700m above sea level). Rainfall that is evenly distributed throughout the growing season is best for apple growth. Windy conditions are harmful to apple trees. Dry, sunny conditions help to produce fruits that have high sugar content and a longer shelf life.
