Raspberry (Rubus ideaus L.) is a leading berry in Serbia, andtogether with blackberry, plum and sour cherry, is one of themost ex orted roducts. In recent ears, its roduction hasranged between 60,000 and 70,000 t. It is estimated that thereare about 15,000 producers, and that raspberry areas occupy
about 15,500 ha.

Production is mainly realised in the hilly-mountainous
regions of western and south-western Serbia.
A great fragmentation of raspberry fields (0,2 0,3ha) is one of the

BlackberrBlackberr Rubus fruticosus L. is the second most im ortant
berry in Serbia. Its production in 2005 reached 25,500 t on the totalarea of 5,500 ha, and later, it increased to 30,000 t in 2007, when it
reached a rather high price. Therefore, our country became the
second largest blackberry producer in the world, following the USA.
Due to a large amount of unsold blackberry in 2007, only about 10,000
t was produced and sold in 2008.
