About the crop

The strawberry is a delicate, short-lived fruit that stands out for early-season protected cropping along the Mediterranean. Turkey produced about 606,000 tonnes in 2024.

Growing difficulty: Hard It spoils quickly, needs frequent picking and an unbroken cold chain, and requires close monitoring for grey mould and spider mites.

Climate

Growing regions

Cultivation

Storage
