WHAT YOU WILL MASTER
Seedling and runner propagation – choose vigorous varieties, prepare trays, control temperature and moisture, and root healthy transplants.
Field management – build raised beds, set drip lines, lay reflective mulch, space plants correctly, and apply balanced nutrition for large, uniform berries.
Integrated pest and disease control – tackle spider mites, aphids, powdery mildew, and fruit rot using low-cost, market-approved methods.
Harvest and marketing – pick at peak ripeness, grade and pack to prevent bruising, calculate costs, and negotiate prices with local traders, grocers, or direct customers.
Lessons are concise, practical, and reinforced with on-farm demonstrations. A downloadable manual summarises all key steps for quick reference in the field.
By the end of the course, you will confidently establish a vigorous strawberry nursery, minimise losses throughout flowering and fruiting, harvest bright red berries with high sugar content, and turn your crop into dependable profit, whether you manage a raised-bed kitchen garden or a small commercial block.
