Usually I use managed arboretums to get saplings for ethanol production, apples and log.
Today I tried orchards with plums and apples.
But while the MFR treefarm with apple oak trees gathered 2 stacks of apples in a matter of only a view minutes, the (full size) orchards produced 0 plums and 0 apples.

Can I do something to speed this up?
Plums should be relatively fast riping but it seems like an orchard is not even close to the productivity of a MFR tree farm.

The thing is: I have log for ages with a max sized MFR tree farm, but the apple production is not sufficient to run a fermenter continuously with fruit juice.
So I want to boost my fruit production with apples or plums or similar without just building a second MFR farm.
Even an forestry apple arboretum is faster in collecting apples than an orchard, whose only purpose is to get apples...
I'm confused. :confused:
