Annual plants<br />
Along with the establishment of a<br />
“classic” raspberry open field, the<br />
same plant system can also be used<br />
for annual raspberry cultivation. This<br />
type of cultivation requires changing<br />
the location annually and an annual<br />
replanting. The advantage of this<br />
cultivation variant is that there is no<br />
com petition between seedling canes<br />
and canes to be harvested.<br />
Some steps – such as the thinning out<br />
of the seedlings – can be omitted.<br />
Negative developments that can arise<br />
with the ageing of a raspberry plant<br />
(diseases, declining size of the fruit<br />
and – quality) are thus circumvented<br />
from the beginning.<br />
The yield, the size of the fruit and the<br />
resulting picking rate are the decisive<br />
factors for the success of an annual<br />
raspberry cultivation. This can only<br />
succeed if the canes achieve a sufficient<br />
length with an appropriate<br />
number of nodes.
