Oregon State University will be hosting a two-day blueberry school on March 16-17, 2015 at The LaSells Stewart Center in Corvallis, Oregon (osublueberryschool.org). Many topics related to growing blueberries will be visited including increasing machine harvesting efficiency, which kind (cultivars) are easiest to grow and in most demand, costs related to resources/planting/acreage for growing, environmental stressors on blueberry plants, disease/virus/insect/weed/vertebrate pest management, and other great information.
We will be presenting labor needs, pros and cons of machine harvesting and tricks for best quality when machine harvesting for processed or fresh markets.
