How Jockeys Earn Money. The average jockey may earn between $30 and $100 per race, depending on the track. A jockey may ride in several races in an afternoon. If he wins, he may receive around 10 percent of the ownerâs winnings, which is usually 60 percent of the purse, although the percentage may vary by locale.
The variety of the strawberry plant determines its lifespan, although a properly cared for plant can produce for up to three or four years. June-bearing varieties require annual rejuvenation to remain productive for more than one season.
Everbearing, also called day-neutral, strawberries can flower and fruit all year long, regardless of the length of the days. Most strawberries must receive between eight and 14 hours of sunlight daily for the best production of both flowers and fruit.
