Orchard Labor and Time Estimator

Estimate crew size and completion time from area, tree count, work type, and throughput.

Use one estimator for pruning, thinning, harvest, bagging, mowing, and spraying, with units and labels that work for orchards around the world.

Как се използва

Enter area and tree count, then choose the work type.
Set throughput. The tool switches between tree-based and area-based work automatically, and Custom lets you choose the basis yourself.
Enter daily working hours, then add either available workers or target days.
Review person-hours, person-days, crew size, days, tree density, and capacity balance.

Formulas

Total labor time (person-hours) = work volume ÷ throughput per person-hour
Person-days = total labor time ÷ daily working hours
Required workers = total labor time ÷ (daily working hours × target days)
Required days = total labor time ÷ (daily working hours × available workers)
Tree density = tree count ÷ area

Внимание

Този инструмент дава само планираща оценка. Реалното време се променя според размера на короната, уменията на работниците, терена, използването на стълби и времето.
Plan safety management, labor rules, breaks, travel, loading, and cleanup separately.
For tree-based jobs, use the actual tree count first instead of relying on area alone.

Често задавани въпроси

Should I enter area or tree count?

The work type decides the basis. Pruning, thinning, harvest, and bagging are tree-based. Mowing and spraying are area-based.

Can I get both crew size and days?

Yes. Enter either available workers or target days to back-calculate the other side. If you enter both, the tool also checks the capacity balance.

Can I use it for harvest jobs?

Yes. It works well for tree-based harvest estimates. If you need exact weight-based planning, use a custom basis or another tool.

Can I use it outside Japan?

Yes. Area units include m², a, 10a, ha, and acre. English pages default to acre, so the workflow stays familiar worldwide.
