I investigated how olive and lemon trees thrive under various lighting situations throughout my fieldwork. To assess the size of the fruit and the trees themselves, I chose four different spots, two in areas with plenty of sunlight and two in areas with more shade. I expected that compared to trees in shaded locations, trees exposed to direct sunlight would grow taller, have more leaves, and produce more fruit.
Overall, the fieldwork went easily, and I had no significant difficulties carrying out the experiment. To make sure the trees received the right amount of sunlight, I did need to be more careful when deciding where to place them and which trees to pick. My understanding of how ecological theory is created has clearly changed as a result of my involvement in ecology practice. My awareness of the intricate connections that exist between plants and their surroundings has deepened as a result of my research. In order to get accurate and insightful results, I also learned how crucial it is to thoroughly plan and carry out studies. In conclusion, my field study on the development of olive and lemon trees in various light environments was a worthwhile educational experience. I was able to put ecological theory to use in a practical situation and learned more about the complexity of the natural world as a result.
