UK raspberry production was worth £109M in 2014, but a further 11KT of berries, worth £59M, areimported each year. A 20% increase in the 14KT of fruit produced p.a. in the UK could be expected toreduce imports by 2.8KT, and raise the value of the UK industry by £15.7M p.a.. However, improved on-farm management of water and fertiliser inputs is needed to optimise productivity; currently, excessivefertigation to substrate-grown raspberry result in vigorous cane growth which makes crop managementdifficult and harvesting costly. Nutrient leaching also poses a risk to groundwater quality. We will usenovel affinity sensors combined with fuzzy logic to automatically adjust nutrient inputs to match plantdemand in real time, reduce fertiliser losses to the environment and improve berry quality. Stresspreconditioning and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) will be used to raise marketable yields, improveresource use and acquisition, and increase crop resilience to stresses.

2014 年，英国覆盆子产量价值 1.09 亿英镑，但每年还要进口 11 吨浆果，价值 5,900 万英镑。年产水果 14KT 增加 20%英国预计进口量将减少 2.8KT，英国工业价值每年将增加 1570 万英镑。然而，需要改善农场对水和肥料投入的管理以优化生产力；目前，对基质种植的覆盆子过度施肥导致甘蔗生长旺盛，导致作物管理困难且收获成本高昂。养分淋滤也对地下水质量构成风险。我们将使用新型亲和传感器与模糊逻辑相结合，自动调整养分输入以实时匹配植物需求，减少肥料对环境的损失并提高浆果质量。胁迫预处理和丛枝菌根真菌（AMF）将用于提高市场产量、改善资源利用和获取，并提高作物的抗逆能力。
