The most common reasons of failures in strawberry cultivation?
- plantlets of bad quality (dried out, diseased or with pests)
- incorrect planting, unsuitable soil, no crop rotation.
- inefficient weed control
- none or inefficient chemical control against diseases and pests
- no mulching with straw which diminishes the quality of berries especially those for fresh use
- low quality of berries (wrong packing, no cooling after harvest, too long time from harvest to processing)
