The plant that produces blueberries is a bush whose branches produce the precious fruit after two years. The blueberry must be harvested by hand, selecting the optimum degree of maturity for it. In a productive season, each plant can produce up to 8 harvests.
In Spain, blueberry cultivation is centered in the north, where temperatures are below 25-30 degrees. With higher temperatures, it would come to a standstill. Therefore, it is not a viable plant in Mediterranean or continental climates. For this reason, the main growing areas are in Asturias, Galicia and the Basque Country.
