Dr. Barclay Poling, although retiring in August of 2013, is passionate about his research on strawberry varieties.  His focus is on micro-climate modifications or low tunnels and how it effects the production of berries.  He recently traveled to Louisiana and checked out the strawberry industry there.  Here is a little blurb he wrote on his findings.
