Objective:
The objective of this cooperative research project is to perform evaluation of strawberries produced experimentally in hydroponic greenhouse system.
Approach:
Strawberries produced by USDA in a greenhouse facility in Kearneysville, WV will be shipped by over-nigh airborne delivery service to a Cooperator at the Connecticut Agricultural Experiment Station.

The Cooperator will tabulate the panel evaluation forms and present the findings to ARS.
