Orchard
An orchard is an intentional plantation of trees or shrubs that is maintained for food production. Orchards comprise fruit- or nut-producing trees which are generally grown for commercial production. Orchards are also sometimes a feature of large gardens, where they serve an aesthetic as well as a productive purpose. A fruit garden is generally synonymous with an orchard, although it is set on a smaller non-commercial scale and may emphasize berry shrubs in preference to fruit trees. Most temperate-zone orchards are laid out in a regular grid, with a grazed or mown grass or bare soil base that makes maintenance and fruit gathering easy. Most modern commercial orchards are planted for a single variety of fruit. While the importance of introducing biodiversity is recognized in forest plantations, it would seem to be beneficial to introduce some genetic diversity in orchard plantations as well by interspersing other trees through the orchard. Genetic diversity in an orchard would p ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Nonduermas
Nonduermas is a village and a district in Murcia, Spain. It is part of the municipality of Murcia. Etymology Unlike other districts of the region ('' comarca'') Huerta de Murcia and belonging to the municipality of Murcia, the Arab toponym of the territory did not persist. This toponym has a previous historically Spanish variant origin (related to the Spanish language spoken in previous eras). 'Nonduermas' is composed by two words: the grammar negator word of a previous historically Spanish variant 'non' and the word 'duermas', which is the verb 'dormir' conjugated, and it means 'to sleep'. Therefore, this expression is negative imperative and it can be translated as 'Don't sleep' or 'Do not sleep'. The reason for this district name is just hypothesized. One hypothesis is about the toponym to have its origins in the fact that a kind of neighbouring assembly medieval government named ''concejo'', established that the meadows of the territory could be place for traffic for the ...
