Some strawberry varieties, which grow in the Humuleşti greenhouse, give fruit until December.

The strawberry gardens of Dumitru Bass lie on the hills of Humuleşti. The farmer is 40 years old, and two years ago he decided to launch a bloody business. ​

“A strawberry bush gives us the fruit of nearly 600 grams. In the greenhouse we have 25 thousand bushes. For so many years I’ve been working in strawberries, I have been related to them. I can not identify a better or less good one. I like everything, “says farmer Dumitru Bass.

“The day of work begins early in the morning. Workers pick strawberries in special casserole, and then they are distributed in stores across the country. ”

“During the season, up to 10 people work at the harvest. Otherwise, three people are doing it, “said the farmer. Strawberry plantation has been making fruit since the end of April, but first sales start in May.

“We started selling on May 3rd. They cost 80 lei, “said Dumitru Bass.

The farmer planted varieties of strawberries that yield fruit until December. “Last year I brought from Italy the Remontant variety, which yields fruit until the late winter.

“The most popular strawberry varieties on the Moldovan market are sweet and fragrant. “Marmolada variety is the most asked. It currently occupies most of the market. It is sweet, fragrant. It does not bake early, but it is the most asked.

“The farmer has received export offers and this year he wants to expand his business – to build more strawberries for the strawberries. “Perspectives are. At present, there is a deficiency in Moldova.

We have no problems with the sale, “concluded the farmer. In the Republic of Moldova there are officially registered ten strawberry producers.
