"Temperate fruits include stone/drupe fruits (such as peach), pome fruits (such as apple) and berries (such as strawberries). Like other crops, cultivation of these fruits faces a number of challenges. These include the need to optimize yields, sensory and nutritional quality to meet rising demand and consumer expectations; the dynamic threats from biotic and abiotic stresses in a changing climate; and the need for more efficient use of ..."
"Originating in Central Asia, apples are one of the most important fruits globally and are grown in over 100 countries. Apple cultivation faces a number of challenges. Increasing global competition has put the focus on lowering costs whilst further improving sensory quality and shelf-life. There is a need to reduce inputs such as water, fertiliser and labour, both to save costs and reduce environmentally-damaging emissions and pollution. ..."
"This collection provides a comprehensive overview of the recent advances in irrigation management in horticultural production, focussing on more conventional growing systems, as well as emerging systems, such as soilless culture production."
