Orchardry, alternatively referred to as fruit farming or fruit growing, encompasses the administration and maintenance of orchards, which consist of plantations adorned with fruit-bearing trees or shrubs. Producing a diverse assortment of crops for human consumption or commercial use is the objective of orchardry.

In the realm of fruit cultivation, orchardists choose fruit tree varieties according to market demand, climate suitability, and soil conditions. Orchardry encompasses a multitude of activities, including but not limited to planting, pruning, fertilizing, managing pests and diseases, irrigation, and harvesting.

To ensure robust fruit production, optimal fruit development, and abundant harvests, orchards must be meticulously maintained and managed. Specialized techniques and equipment are frequently utilized by orchardists in order to maximize produce production and preserve the orchard ecosystem's health.

Orchards have the capacity to cultivate a wide variety of fruits, such as cherries, apples, pears, peaches, plums, and citrus fruits, among others. Whether conducted on a small scale for individual consumption or on a large scale for commercial produce production, orchardry is contingent upon the orchardist's objectives and available resources.
