Abstract
To compare the nutritive value of strawberries on the market, between those by off-season culture and those by normal culture, the vitamin C content at their respective seasons were estimated.
The crop-moving season of the strawberries by off-season culture is divided as follows: Oct. -Apr. (items: normal culture for fall production, Oct. -Nov., forcing culture, Dec. -Feb., and semi-forcing culture, Mar. -Apr.), and May-mid-June, the crop-moving season of those by normal culture.
The vitamin C content in the strawberries by off-season culture is 82.6mg% (mean value), which is considerably higher than that in those by normal culture, 57.9mg%.
