" I have been in Ningxia , China , for more than 13 age , in the main furnish planting consult service to growers all over China , specially in the airfield of raspberries , " said Norbert Fischer , from Germany .

" In 2007,our family line of work was sold to Syngenta . After that , I began to think , should I continue to find a large company to function for ? Or try something more meaningful . In the end , I decided to use my professional skills to serve raiser instead of a caller . "

" The market for raspberries in China is very pocket-size , especially ten yr ago , and it is still dominate by frozen merchandise . There is not much sales event space for saucy razz . The main reason is that the berries are difficult to transport over long aloofness . caliber can be greatly lost during transportation . For agriculturist , it is very significant to grow snort with just caliber , but it is also very important to regain stable sale channels . Because once the raspberries are right and harvested , they demand to be sold immediately . Otherwise , loss will occur . This is why most raspberry in the Chinese market are still sold as frigid products , which can reduce the gross revenue pressure on growers . However , it is difficult for consumers to smack the luscious taste of fresh raspberries . Taste is very important to consumers in the Chinese food market . Raspberry is a rough-cut yield in European and American countries . Most of them are a bit on the sour side , and Chinese consumer prefer sweet ones . "

" Doing Agriculture Department is very hard work . You have to go and see the crop growing area yourself to know what is happening to the plant and adjust the solution apace . I put up expert advice to client in different provinces in China , need raspberry , rhododendron , ornamental plant life raiser , tomato , and other crops . I locomote a lot , even during the pandemic . Because communicating is only done over the earpiece , the customer can only show part of the image and may miss authoritative details and induce mistakes . Now more and more high-pitched - technical school equipment is installed in the nursery , but automation does not think that masses are completely unnecessary . The current technology can not realize truly unmanned planting . Various change occur during the planting process , and it hold years of accumulated experience to accurately identify them . "

" While provide planting engineering science consulting religious service , I have been exit on the concept of adapting measures to local conditions to my customers . We can see that many new soilless finish nursery have been build in China in late years for growing roses and tomatoes . There is no dubiety that soilless refinement is the way to succeeding agricultural development . But what is significant is that we maximize the use of natural resources according to the local clime and the crops we plant , reduce energy costs , and make modern farming a engineering that truly benefits growers .
