" There is a machine that gathers strawberries, but you have to【C6】______the crop to the machine," says Agustin Muriel, a technical and quality control expert at Alfrut. " If we were to use machines, we would have to【C7】______our entire infrastructure and it would require a lot of investment in machinery, which is designed mainly for large areas and really big companies.

He adds that the【C8】______, manual approach is likely to continue for the【C9】______future, as fruit prices aren’t high enough to allow farmers to make big【C10】______in machinery or spend money reconfiguring(重新配置)their operations.
