In order to give a regular supply throughout the season we employ a number of different techniques and varieties. The Company has been at the forefront of developments regarding the use of Everbearer Varieties providing supplies during July, August and September. These developments, based on our own variety Everest, have led to a fourfold increase in strawberry tonnage during the last 20 years to meet the increasing demand for summer fruits.
In response to customer demand the Company is currently investing in raspberry plantations and will achieve 250 tonnes by 2005. Production is from June to November using a number of modern varieties and techniques. |
