Growing strawberries in Scotland

This article is a about Growing strawberries in Scotland. Recently we had the pleasure of hosting John Gray, Managing Director of Angus Soft Fruits (www.angussoftfruits.co.uk) located in Angus, Scotland, to give him a brief tour of the Australian berry industry. John was visiting berry businesses and other horticultural enterprises in Victoria, Tasmania and New Zealand as part of a Nuffield Farming Scholarship looking at how berry growers can increase their share of the value chain. We asked John if he could give us a snapshot of the Scottish Berry Industry, one that we don’t often hear about, and we will be looking forward to hearing the outcomes of his Nuffield research.
