Blackcurrant World Conference 2008

ADAS consultant John Atwood recently attended and delivered a paper at the Blackcurrant World Conference, which was held in Christchurch, New Zealand. The conference covered agronomy, marketing and health related topics. HDC asked John to provide a summary report of information that would be relevant and of interest to UK growers. This has been posted on this website on the soft fruit page under Project Reports (SF 110).


There are some very good summaries in the agronomy section, which will be of particular interest to UK blackcurrant growers. Growers are also urged to read the sections on Conclusions and Recommendations for future research, which will be thought provoking.

Look out for an article written by John, to be included in HDC News magazine in the early part of 2009.
