Raspberries are booming. This is true for the fruit market, where consumption is currently doubling every 4-6 years. It's also true for the home garden market.

With these questions in mind, Frederik Vollert and Markus Kobelt highlight the importance and place of the new raspberry families: salmon raspberries, Chef® raspberries and Schlaraffia® raspberries.
