One such market, which has been identified, is the organic black currant market in Japan. The interest in organic black currants has grown over the past decade in Japan due to the health benefits of the fruit. While black currents have been grown in smaller clusters in PEI, organic black currants have never been grown commercially in PEI and as a result there is a need for a production manual so that growers will have up to date and uniform production and harvesting information.

  • Submission from the Munro Society

    Submission from the Munro Society

    SUBMISSION FROM THE MUNRO SOCIETY HISTORICAL BACKGROUND TO TITLE “CAIRNGORMS” 1. The term Cairngorms is a nickname applied to that area of Am Monadh Ruadh, or the red-hill range, and has now passed into common usage on maps and in guidebooks. This is generally accepted as the central station of the range of mountains stretching from Ben Alder towards Lochnagar and the eastern glens known as the Grampians, or more properly The Mounth. One of the well-known guide books published by the Scottish Mountaineering Club under the title “ The Cairngorms” includes that area of highland Perthshire which covers the major hills around Beinn Dearg, Beinn a’ Ghlo, and Glas Tulaichean to the south of the County March/Regional Boundary. The name Cairngorms is therefore ill-defined and from a mountaineering perspective we would argue that it applies to the greater area embracing the highland Perthshire hills, and by their proximity the hills immediately to the west of the Pass of Drumochter could merit inclusion for both topographic merit and administrative convenience. (Ref: The Cairngorms – Scottish Mountaineering Club District Guidebook by Adam Watson pb The Scottish Mountaineering Trust ISBN 0-907521-39-8) This supports the original proposal by Scottish Natural heritage who argued that there was a “strong case for inclusion” of that area of highland Perthshire (Atholl, Glen Fearnate, and Glen Shee). TOPOGRAPHY 1. The landforms of the hills of highland Perthshire have like characteristics to those of the higher Cairngorms peaks, consisting for the most part of the high plateaux dissected by deep glens through which run the main arteries of communication.
