Heat Units
Heat units (HU) data is a measure of the amount of favourable
temperatures for fruit growing conditions. As the heat sum value
increases, the potential rate of fruit development increases.
The heat unit formulae in
the maximum temperature plus the minimum temperature divided by
two and minus thirteen.
Note: maximum tempartures above 35°C are limted to
35°C and heat units are limited to positive values.
Heat units = ((Max+Min)/2)-13 (Note: max temp limited to 35°C)
