A large proportion of strawberries are now produced in polytunnels using the matted bed or table top system. The former allows strawberries to be picked from a seated position from a wheeled trolley; the latter raises the strawberries to about chest height. Gross yields can be slightly lower and there's a significant capital cost for table top production, but it can work out cheaper overall due to easier organic pest control, higher quality and reduced husbandry and picking costs. We're likely to see a considerable shift towards table top production as brexit starts to bite.
