“…It is well established that warmer winters will impact not only on the rate of chilling but also on the date of flowering. Long-term data on climate and yield (MAFF, 1973) will prove invaluable for informing discussions and thinking to continue to develop meteorologically based recommendations about geographical tree fruit cropping strategies for the UK similar to those of Hogg (1967) and others. These potential cropping patterns will inevitably need to change so as to encompass future expectations and climate change impacts on UK food chain production strategies, both regionally and nationally.…”

The impacts of climate change for UK fruit growing regions requiring winter chill dormancy are discussed and insights are drawn from subtropical regions where chilling requirements for these perennial crops have been overcome. A further challenge facing UK soft fruit growers is water availability for irrigation. To maintain future productivity, more sustainable production systems are needed. The authors discuss recent advances in irrigation scheduling and deficit irrigation techniques, along with their potential to reduce water inputs while maintaining yields of high-quality, healthy berries.
