Double harvest: #raspberries and #RenewableEnergy - #FruitLogistica
Excerpts: "Based on current findings, strawberries do not thrive under #SolarPanels, so this combination of crops does not have a promising future. This was the conclusion of a Wageningen University study on fruit cultivation beneath #photovoltaic systems.
Strawberries grown beneath solar panels with 25 to 50 per cent light transmission experienced a significant drop in yield – by 25 to 30 per cent.
The situation was quite different for raspberries, however: under solar panels with 40 per cent light transmission, the harvest yield fell by only five per cent, and the quality of the fruit remained unchanged. At the same time, the panels reduced evaporation and water consumption, protecting the berries from burns and heat peaks.
The scientists also expect positive effects on #WaterConsumption and protection against #ExtremeWeather conditions.
[...]
One clear advantage is that raspberries are currently grown under rain protection films that have to be replaced every five to seven years. This equates to a significant amount of plastic that would no longer be required if solar modules were used instead. And they last at least ten years."

Vor den Toren der #FruitLogistica in #Berlin fanden letzte Woche Proteste gegen soziale und ökologische Missstände im globalen Obsthandel statt. #Amerika21 hat ein Gespräch mit zwei beteiligten Aktivist:innen über #Lieferketten, deutsche Pestizide in #Brasilien und das Freihandelsabkommen zwischen #EU und #Mercosur geführt. https://amerika21.de/2026/02/282608/protest-gegen-fruit-logistica

Estamos en Berlín para señalar a la feria #FruitLogistica y al modelo agroindustrial que promociona, un modelo que genera fuertes desigualdades sociales e impactos ambientales.
¿Estás en Berlín y quieres participar? Mucha atención a estas citas.

El jueves comienzan las protestas contra #FruitLogistica en Berlín. Nos movilizamos para denunciar el modelo agroindustrial que promueve ferias como esta y para exigir cambios urgentes. Estas son nuestras demandas. 👇🏾

La semana que viene volveremos a salir a las calles de Berlín —junto a una amplia coalición internacional de organizaciones sociales y ecologistas— para señalar a la feria #FruitLogistica y al modelo agroindustrial injusto e insostenible que promueve.
Con más de 66.000 visitantes y cerca de 2.700 expositores, Fruit Logistica es uno de los mayores escaparate del sector que esconde las injusticias del sistema agrícola actual. 🌱🔥

👥 Te invitamos a una sesión informativa donde explicaremos cómo participar, tanto en Berlín como desde casa, en los días de acción contra #FruitLogistica y por otro modelo agroalimentario.
🗓 Lunes 15 de diciembre.
⏰ 19:00 horas.
📍 Por Zoom: us02web.zoom.us/j/8165434145...
¡Te esperamos!

Por eso, Ecologistas en Acción, junto a colectivos alemanes, sindicalistas y agricultores, organizamos dos días de acción contra #FruitLogistica.
Denunciaremos este modelo y construiremos alianzas mediante un tribunal popular que recogerá testimonios de personas afectadas y organizadas.

A #FruitLogistica acuden 66.000 visitantes y 2.700 expositores, entre ellos muchas empresas productoras y exportadoras de Murcia, Almería, Huelva y otras comunidades autónomas. Se trata de una de las ferias más grandes del sector.

Como cada mes de febrero, la feria #FruitLogistica reúne en Berlín al gran lobby hortofrutícola global: empresas del sector, puertos, bancos, aseguradoras… Todo para impulsar el modelo agrícola y logístico dominante.
Dentro hilo. 🧵
