Growing blueberries is not only about profits, but also about the challenges the company faces every season.
We face risks starting from the forecasting stage. And it is very important to take into account a number of factors that will determine the future harvest and the price of berries.
Blueberries like acidic, moist soils, and their development, health and fruiting depend on the correct conditions for plant growth.
Natural conditions have a major impact on the harvest. For example, during flowering, frost is a major danger, as it can significantly reduce or even completely destroy the crop.
Another risk is the lack of sufficient rainfall during the formation and growth of berries. During this period, it is important to organise proper and sufficient watering for the plants.
On the other hand, too rainy weather during ripening can also be harmful.
Another key point is to protect blueberries from pests and diseases. Regular phytopathological monitoring and timely preventive treatment of the bushes help us here.
