Advanced Cultivation Technologies for Horticultural Crops Production

Agricultural activities, including the cultivation, production, distribution, storage, and consumption of agricultural products, directly influence the quality of natural resources and human life. Advanced cultivation research and technologies are essential for the development of climate-smart, resource-efficient, and high-yielding horticultural systems. By adopting modern cultivation technologies, growers can improve productivity, reduce production costs, and ensure food security while maintaining ecological balance.This Special Issue collected the current scientific knowledge on advanced cultivation technologies for horticultural and fruit crop production. The publications focused on smart farming systems for fruit crop growing; cultivation techniques for horticultural and fruit crops; mechanization studies for crop production; the eco-friendly cultivation and production of fruit crops; the impact of controlled environmental conditions on the development of fruit crops; pre- and post-harvest management strategies to improve the quality of crops; and plant metabolites, bioactive compounds, and antioxidant metabolism in fruit crop production.
