Published purpose
This project will evaluate the feasibility of growing long cane raspberries under high tunnels in order to maximize yield and ROI. We will compare three different plant spacings to identify which spacing produces the greatest ROI based on yield, plant costs, and picking efficiency. We will record 'Growing Degree Hours' which will be used in subsequent years to better plan planting dates so that harvest can coincide with peak market demand and so that we can scale production accordingly
