The EUFRUIT Knowledge Platform is part of a European thematic network of 21 partners including research institutes, universities and industrial partners who represent keyparts of the fruit supply chain from 12 countries.

The European Fruit Network (EUFRUIT) - Knowledge Platform

EUFRUIT Knowledge Platform is an international open access database of electronic documents related to productivity, sustainability and quality of fruit in the European fruit sector. New knowledge on fruit research and best practice approaches at a European level are available in the database. It is possible to search for information in a specific language.

Focuses are on four thematic areas of critical importance to competitiveness and innovation potential of the European fruit sector:

Fruit quality; improvement of fruit handling/storage

Agroscope-WP4-A25 Retaining freshness of cherries Organising/holding open demonstration day - Fruit quality; improvement of fruit handling/storage Cherries do not ripen after harvest. This has an influence on the optimal harvest and storage conditions. The optimum harvest time is an important basis for the shelf life and quality of cherries.
Agroscope-WP4-A22 Storage recommendations for pome fruit Publication of technical bulletin/guideline - Fruit quality; improvement of fruit handling/storage At harvest peaks in berry production, price pressure due to an oversupply of goods compared to market demand often requires storage for a couple of days. Strawberries and raspberries are particularly susceptible to spoilage after harvesting, so we use this publication to make some recommendations for their storage. In addition, first results of storage trials on the new pear CH201…
Agroscope-WP4-A19 The apple fruit microbiome: influence of orchard management, variety and storage time Participation in scientific conference - Fruit quality; improvement of fruit handling/storage Microbial spoilage in commercial apple storage facilities can lead to Food Loss of up to 30% during the storage period. Here we aimed to characterize the microbiome and the abundance of pathogens on the apple skin and to elucidate the influence of the apple variety, orchard management practices and the dynamics of the microbial composition during the entire storage period. The…

UNIBO-WP2-A39 Le nuove varietà di mele Unibo Publication of technical bulletin/guideline - Performance of new fruit varieties Le nuove varietà di mele Unibo: qualità, conservabilità e sostenibilità Si chiamano "rosata", "rossa" e "rugginosa": dalla polpa all'acidità, fino alla percentuale di zuccheri nel succo, le analisi hanno confermato la loro capacità di mantenere le principali caratteristiche organolettiche anche a distanza di vari mesi dalla raccolta
UNIBO-WP2-A40 Rossa, Rosetta e Rugginosa: ecco le tre nuove mele Unibo Publication of newsletter - Performance of new fruit varieties Three new cultivar from the breeding program of UNIBO Rossa, Rosetta e Rugginosa: ecco le tre nuove mele Unibo
Agroscope-WP2-A44 Breitenhoftagung (demonstration day on experimental field station) Organising/holding field-based workshop - Performance of new fruit varieties Once per year, the European stone fruit industry meets at Agroscope’s stone fruit center Breitenhof in Wintersingen, Switzerland. On a tour of the experimental site, producers and other industry representatives get an insight into the trials and other current topics concerning stone fruit production. Focal points this year were presentations on the functioning of leaf…
UNIBO-WP2-A41 European Research Night - Il DNA negli alberi da frutto Participation in event aimed at general public - Performance of new fruit varieties Notte dei ricercatori - Laboratori interattivi, giochi, performance artistiche, speed date, passeggiate notturne tra storia e scienza, attività hands-on, cacce al tesoro, concerti, mostre fotografiche, proiezioni cinematografiche, dibattiti
UNIBO-WP5-A14 European Research Night - Il frutteto del futuro Participation in event aimed at general public - Secure sustainable fruit production I frutteti evolvono? Che cosa è la frutticoltura di precisione? La fisiologia delle piante e le tecnologie (informatiche, meccaniche, elettroniche) sono sempre più presenti nell’ambito frutticolo e costituiscono un fondamentale elemento per l’evoluzione verso un nuovo modo di gestire il frutteto (es. frutticoltura di precisione) attraverso un insieme di soluzioni ad alto contenuto…
Agroscope-WP2-A29 Publication Revue Suisse: "Neue Apfelsorten mit Mehrwert" Publication in technical journal - Performance of new fruit varieties Publication: "New apple varieties with added value" In Switzerland, the varieties Gala, Golden Delicious and Braeburn dominate the production and the market. The variety testing at Agroscope aims at finding new varieties that bring a benefit to consumers, distributors and producers. The testing involves several stages in order to determine performance, susceptibility to…
