Raspberry is the most important kind of berries and specific in many of its characteristics -biological properties, economic importance, agro-ecological, technological
The experiment was carried out in a greenhouse in the Mediterranean Agronomic Institute of Bari (IAMB.) located in the southeastern Italy. The aim of this research was to evaluate macronutrient (NPK) status of cauliflower grown in three inert substrates (perlite, gravel and pozzolana). Nutrient losses were very low due to a good management practice and control of fertiliser application. The highest NPK nutrients application efficiency was obtained in phosphorus, 97.2%. Among nutrients, potassium was lost in the highest percentage (11.6%). Obtained losses did not cause high pollution of the soil and ground water.
Through its “synergic” character and multiplied effects which it has on total agricultural development in the environments in which it is being developed through the concept of agriculture’s multifunctionality, tourism offers a chance to alleviate negative tendencies and processes that burden villages in Serbia. Chronological review of the development of the concept of multifunctionality is determined within this work and it is pointed to the possibility of complementary development of agriculture and rural tourism. This work also points to recent accomplished results in Serbia.
Paper's focus is on the economic effects of introducing energy from renewable sources (solar energy) in the raspberry production (mainly for irrigation). Main goal is to assess economic effectiveness of investment in establishing and exploiting raspberry plantation, as well as implementation of required equipment and mechanization, from the point of two investment scenarios. First scenario considers conventional way of raspberry production, compared to raspberry production under mobile solar robotized electric generator. Methodologically, the analysis implies application of a set of methods for dynamic evaluation of investment and methods for evaluation of investments under uncertainty (the net present value, the internal rate of return, the payback period and the break-even point).The result of conducted assessment shows that, apart from ecological benefit, there is high economic justification of investment into device used for transfer of renewable into electric energy in raspberry production.
Raspberry is the most important and the most profitable export commodity in the structure of agricultural exports. It is exported at an average price of 2.7 USD/ kg, mainly frozen and mostly to the markets of Germany, France and Belgium. Therefore, this paper, in addition to data on raspberry production in Serbia and world raspberry production, also presents the volume and value of frozen raspberry exports from the Republic of Serbia in the period 2010-2015, the dynamics of frozen raspberry exports from Serbia to leading export markets as well as to the frozen raspberry markets of Serbia's main competitors.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
