Fruit trees and necessity

If there is no water, there are no trees in the first place.

Quote:Does the presence of water determine whether or not a fruit tree will make fruit?

No.  It's availability and amount, not it's presence, correspond to increases and decreases in average yield...both in the upper and lower ends.  Too much - lower yields.  Too little, lower yields.  Just the right amount but none of it the suitable ph or salinity, lower yields.  

Floods and droughts and poisoned tables are all expected to decrease average yields - regardless of the presence of water in two out of three examples, because all correspond with crop failures in our model.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
