Unique and Alternative Fruit Crops (Workshop) *CEU Approved

Objective(s):
The objective of this workshop is to provide information about unique/alternative fruit crops that researchers and extension personnel are being increasingly asked about.
This workshop will introduce several unique and alternative fruit crops that are increasingly being encountered among researchers and extension personnel.  The purpose of this workshop is to provide information about the production and relevant physiology of these specific fruit crops so that researchers and extension personnel are better able to address questions concerning these crops.  Specific crops to be addressed include: hardy kiwi (Actinidia arguta), haskap (Lonicera caerulea), unique caneberry species (Rubus glaucus, R. coreanus, and/or R. phoenicolasius), and continental-climate grapes (Vitis spp.).
