For the purpose of poving the assumption the existing technological, organizational and economic aspects were analyzed. Within this framework, the emphasis has been put on technology of raspberry production, demand for labor and machine work in the applied technology, as well as the most important economic parameters of production, such as cost and value of production, income and profits, employment of the population, and finally, the impact on overall economic development.
