Berry Cultivation
Berry cultivation involves the growing of various types of berries, such as strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries. These fruits thrive in well-drained soil and require adequate sunlight and water. Farmers often choose specific varieties based on climate and market demand, ensuring optimal growth and yield.
To cultivate berries, proper care is essential, including regular pruning and pest management. Many growers use organic methods to enhance soil health and reduce chemical use. Harvesting typically occurs in late spring to summer, depending on the berry type, and requires careful handling to prevent damage to the delicate fruits.
