In this episode we are joined by Dr. Margaret Worthington, Associate Professor in Fruit Breeding and Genetics at the University of Arkansas. Margaret directs the applied peach and muscadine grape cultivar development programs at the University of Arkansas, and is soon to take over the blackberry breeding program. Margaret came on the podcast to discuss the value of muscadines and how they can compliment other small fruit crops on diversified farms. We also discussed cultivar selection for both processing and fresh markets, seedless muscadines, and research and breeding efforts that aim to take muscadines to the next level.
