China a big market for international blueberry growers

KUNMING, Sept. 13 (Xinhua) -- Chinese demand for blueberries has been rapidly growing, offering abundant opportunities for the international blueberry growing industry.
The country's blueberry imports have grown from 692 to 8,722 tonnes from 2012 to 2016, with the trade volume growing from 4.6 million to 78.4 million U.S. dollars, according to a report published at the 2017 International Blueberry Organization (IBO) Summit held from Sept. 10-12 in Qujing, southwest China's Yunnan Province.
During the first seven months of 2017, blueberry imports registered an annual growth of 42.7 percent, and the trade volume grew by 37 percent, the report said.
Felipe Juillerat, president of the Chilean Blueberry Committee, said that some 70 percent of Chile's blueberry exports to Asia go to the Chinese market.
China's per capita consumption of blueberries is 3.7 grams per year, compared to 1.5 kilograms in the United States, which means the Chinese market is full of potential, he said.
According to the IBO, China has seen a robust growth in blueberry farming. Before 2008, the fruit was grown in only six provinces and that number grew to 27 in 2016.
Chilean berry expert Pilar Banados said, as Chinese territory spans a long distance from north to south, it is suitable for growing different varieties of blueberries.
The summit was jointly hosted by the local government in Qujing, the provincial agriculture department and the IBO. The IBO was established in 2011, and the summit has previously been held in Chile, Mexico, Australia and Uruguay.

TED is a nonpartisan nonprofit devoted to spreading ideas, usually in the form of short, powerful talks. TED began in 1984 as a conference where Technology, Entertainment and Design converged, and today covers almost all topics — from science to business to global issues — in more than 110 languages. Meanwhile, independently run TEDx events help share ideas in communities around the world.has bought a minority stake in privately held U.S. healthcare IT firm NantHealth. The two companies told
they are working together to develop a new smartphone tailored to the needs of the healthcare sector — with a launch pegged for late 2014 or early 2015, according to Jim Mackey, BlackBerry’s head of corporate development and strategic planning, speaking in an interview with the news agency.
Despite being designed as a mobile for diagnosticians and other healthcare workers, the forthcoming handset will still include standard smartphone features — such as the ability to download consumer apps, view videos and play games.
“We do plan to make the device available for all, but it will be optimized for viewing 3D images and CT scans,” said Mackey, adding that the tie-up exemplifies BlackBerry’s fresh focus on regulated industries.
The embattled Canadian smartphone maker is in the process of realigning its business under new CEO John Chen to focus on core areas where demand for its locked-down network and security-compliant mobile devices remains.
That realignment boils down to targeting the niche markets, such as government bodies or, indeed, healthcare organisations, where users have to manage access to sensitive, regulated data. It’s the sort of niche, vertical focus that BlackBerry’s original business had — before it branched out into consumer devices, and ultimately got overwhelmed by touchscreen-centric devices running Android and iOS — making it something of a retrenchment to its traditional core for BlackBerry.
For its part, NantHealth’s current suite of products include diagnostic tools, patient and clinician portals, a cloud-based health information system, and connectivity systems for relaying data from various hospital devices back to central electronic medical records.
As well as working together to develop a medical market handset, NantHealth said the BlackBerry buy-in will allow it to expand the services it currently offers and push more of its services out to secure mobile devices.
Financial terms of the deal between NantHealth and BlackBerry have not been disclosed.
BlackBerry reported its
last month, posting a smaller loss than analysts had feared — but still $435 million down, with revenue dropping 64 percent from 2013 levels to $976 million. That loss was at least far less than the previous quarter when the company posted a loss of $4.4 billion.
