SMALL FRUIT RESEARCH, NEW INTRODUCTIONS AND VIRUS INDEXING^©

The University of the Fraser Valley (UFV) was designated the Agriculture Centre of Excellence for British Columbia by the Province’s Premier in May, 2013. The message was that the Ministries of Advanced Education and Agriculture must work together to establish a hub at UFV that brings together the efforts of all other institutions in the province that have capacity in agriculture. While a work in progress, many avenues have been covered and many collaborations struck to develop the most environmentally, socially, and economically sustainable industry in North America and provide industry with resources to be proactive.
