Effect of Mechanical Harvesting Technology Type and Harvester Ownership and Services Acquisition Methods on Profitability of Wild Blueberry Production
The profitability of wild blueberry (Vaccinium angustifolium) production using two alternative mechanical harvesters was evaluated under three different harvester ownership/service arrangements commonly used by farmers. Production data for the economic analysis were obtained from on-farm trials conducted in Nova Scotia, Canada. Net returns were CAD$323 ha−1 using a semi-automatic bin handling system compared with CAD$281 ha−1 for a small box handling system with outright harvester purchase. By comparison, net returns were CAD$90 ha−1 using the semi-automatic bin handling system and CAD$63 ha−1 using the small box system using rental harvesting services. The results are more sensitive to changes in yield than price.
期刊介绍：
The International Journal of Fruit Science disseminates results of current research that are immediately applicable to the grower, extension agent, and educator in a useful, legitimate, and scientific format. The focus of the journal is on new technologies and innovative approaches to the management and marketing of all types of fruits. It provides practical and fundamental information necessary for the superior growth and quality of fruit crops.
This journal examines fruit growing from a wide range of aspects, including:
-genetics and breeding
-pruning and training
-entomology, plant pathology, and weed science
-physiology and cultural practices
-marketing and economics
-fruit production, harvesting, and postharvest
