Maturity group — Strawberry

Fragaria x ananassa Duchesne ex Rozier

The maturity group for strawberries is a classification of cultivars based on the relative calendar period of berry ripening in a specific climatic zone. This indicator is a key tool for planning the harvest conveyor and assessing agrotechnical risks.

In the reference 336 varieties crop Garden strawberry, where this is mentioned in the description.

The classification of strawberries includes extra-early, early, early-mid, mid-season, mid-late, and late cultivars. Unlike field crops, fixed points or growing degree days are not applied here; instead, the assessment is conducted during variety trials by comparing cultivars against control standards. Neutral-day and everbearing cultivars, whose fruiting cycle is regulated by different biological mechanisms, are considered separately from traditional groups.

The choice of maturity group determines the cultivation technology and the farm's economic strategy. Early cultivars require protection against recurring spring frosts, while neutral-day cultivars need increased levels of nutrition and irrigation throughout a long season. A judicious combination of cultivars from different groups allows for extending the harvest period by up to four months and minimizing logistical risks.
