The UK berry sector has announced that a new research and development board will be formed, aimed at advancing sustainability and efficiency for growers.
British Berry Growers (BBG), which represents 95% of all the UK’s commercial soft fruit growers, has announced the formation of the new board. The body said it had a mission of ensuring "the long-term success of a thriving British berry industry, recognised internationally for leading ethical and environmental leadership".
The newly-established board’s work is being funded by a voluntary levy paid by BBG members.
