EDUCATION

Happy join the strawberry platform. I am keen to learn about straw berry agronomy, breeding and business. I have a few straw berries in my backyard, my children scout them to pick every straw berry even when they are not fully red. I have a dream- to grow straw berries for sale. Strawberry is a high value crop. I will be happy to be the first strawberry breeder in my country. I have come to love this crop. Very happy to be hear to learn, interact and grow.

Hi Ann, can you give us a little more information about the variety/ies of strawberries you have in your backyard if you know? Where did you get the plants from? Where in Uganda are you from? Is your home in a cooler place? I'm asking all these questions because the times I've been to Uganda it's been pretty hot and strawberries tend to shut down flowering when its too hot. In many tropical environments, strawberries are grown in cooler high elevations. Is this the case for you? Perhaps others in this collaboration have questions as well??
