A study was carried out in the 2000-2001 season, in Tancítaro, Michoacán State, at the “Las Iglesias” orchard (1,950 masl), owned by Mr. José Orejel, in which the phenological cycle of the avocado was established. In this trial, the periods and scope of the plants’ growth (fruits, foliage, roots and flowers) were determined, for plants under rain-fed conditions and under relief irrigation.
