Strawberries production in greenhouses and indoor farms represents an uprising market that offers the potential for CEA growers to diversify and remain competitive. In a GLASE webinar on November 21, Dr. Chieri Kubota from Ohio State University will discuss the opportunities of off-season strawberry production under controlled environments.
Dr. Kubota’s research mission is to serve in the development of science and technology in the area of controlled environment agriculture. Her projects are in an interdisciplinary area that encompasses plant physiology and horticultural engineering to enhance understanding and efficiency of CEA plant production systems such as greenhouses, warehouses (vertical farms), and growth chambers.
