(Rivers photo) Says Acre Of Strawberries Brings More Money Than Weed The small fruits committee of the Watauga County Exten sion Advisory Board met April 5 to discuss the production and marketing of email fruits in the county. It was agreed by the growers present that strawberries offer one of the greatest net returns per acre for the investment and time required of any small fruits. Plus, the profit from one acre at strawberries can be equal to or greater than one | acre of tobacco, ne present number of growers cannot sup ply the demand for fresh straw berries in Watauga County. Consequently, it was the feel ing of this committee that more people should be encouraged to grow this high value cash crop. Mr. Denny Ensley stated that one acre of strawberries re quire “She third ai much work to produce as an acre of to bacco. With reduction of labor requirements, the present grow-' ers have reported no labor shortage. Strawberries are har vested in June when students are out of school. Mr. Carson McNeil permitted consumers to pick directly from his field: which helped relieve labor re-' quirements during harvest time. The cultural practices for growing strawberries are simi lar to those for growing other vegetable crops, which would permit even the inexperienced t* grow this crop. Since market and labor requirements present no problem, the small fruits committee would like to en courage the inexperienced small growers to consider this crop.
