Summary

This 2023 narrative review in Scientia Horticulturae examines the current state of commercial strawberry production systems, synthesising existing knowledge on production practices, challenges and future directions. The review appears to integrate perspectives on horticultural practices, sustainability and emerging approaches to strawberry cultivation. The specific geographic scope and depth of coverage regarding soil health, nutrient management or nutritional composition cannot be confirmed without access to the full abstract.

Regional applicability

Strawberry production is commercially significant in the United Kingdom (particularly in southern regions), though production methods and scale vary by geography. The transferability of recommendations will depend on the review's geographic focus and whether findings address temperate climate production systems applicable to UK conditions.

Key measures

Likely covers yield metrics, production systems, pest and disease management, environmental impacts, and technological innovations, though specific measures are not confirmed without the abstract.

Outcomes reported

A review synthesising current practices, challenges and future perspectives in commercial strawberry production. The study likely examines cultivation methods, productivity, sustainability considerations and emerging technologies in the sector.
