To our knowledge, no research to date has examined the
interaction between propagation material and crop duration on
strawberry production in southern Italy. Therefore we conducted
field trials in Campania region on short-day strawberry cultivar
Camarosa, with the objective of investigating the effects on plant
growth, yield and fruit quality of: (a) organic or conventional farming
method; (b) annual or biennial crop duration from cold stored
or fresh plants.
