Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

This journal focuses on the research of berries and other fruits, including their cultivation, genetic improvement, and nutritional content. Studies investigate the impact of agricultural practices, such as hydroponics, rootstocks, and nutrient treatments, on fruit yield and quality. The journal also explores the biochemical composition of fruits, particularly their phenolic compounds and antioxidant activities, and their potential health benefits. Additionally, research covers methods for fruit processing, extraction of bioactive compounds, and the development of functional foods.
