Discover how recent developments in farming technology are pushing the industry forward.
Jupiter, FL— Scheduled to broadcast Q4/2022, Advancements with Ted Danson will focus on breakthroughs in nursery and fruit production.
From innovations in subsurface drip-irrigation to fully vented micro tunnel systems, this segment of Advancements will explore how Cedar Point Nursery (CPN) is innovating and moving the industry forward.
Spectators will see how CPN’s ground-breaking practices and techniques have reduced huge amounts of risk that used to be carried by both nurseries and fruit producers.
“Our founder, Mike Fahner, was well known in the industry as an entrepreneur and an innovator. Under his leadership, many commonly used farming techniques were invented in our fields. Even though he isn’t with us anymore, his attitude and spirit remain alive and well. Each and every day, we are pushing ourselves to challenge the status quo, and we hope to continue being a catalyst for change within the strawberry nursery business,” said David Adams, President & CEO.
The show will also focus on how CPN grows various strawberry varieties to the tune of about 75 million plants annually, which are then sold to fruit growers throughout California, Florida, Mexico, and Canada. Audiences will learn about the entire production process, where strawberry meristems are harvested in a lab and cultivated for 2-3 years before they are ready for sale.
“We look forward to exploring CPN’s dedication to creating innovative practices that will continue to deliver the highest quality plants possible,” said John Galvin, senior producer for the Advancements series.
