The Review provides a portfolio of Niab’s current and recently completed fruit research projects, providing short summaries of the results and key findings for the industry.
There are short snippets on new projects along with details about how Niab supports the fruit industry through a range of services.
Of particular note this year are summaries of projects aimed to increase yields of strawberry in controlled atmosphere conditions, match water and nutrients to plant demand in strawberry and plum, harness beneficial insects for pest control, develop novel solutions to pests and diseases in apple and soft fruit, and improve the management of bees and pollinators.
There is further information about Niab’s involvement in new genetic research to aid private soft fruit breeding programmes, and a summary of how Growing Kent & Medway has been supporting the food, drink and horticulture sector.
Paper copies of the Niab Fruit Annual Review 2026 will be made available at industry events and other meetings through the year.
