Abstract
The Pacific Northwest (PNW) raspberry industry has undergone substantial structural changes over the last two decades driven by shifts in production and trade and strengthened intellectual property rights to protect cultivars. Since the mid-1980's, Washington raspberry production has increased substantively while British Columbia (BC) production has exhibited a downward decline. Plant breeding in the PNW has been affected by the increased globalization of the raspberry trade and the increased emphasis on plant patents and plant breeder's rights to protect cultivars. The increased emphasis on intellectual property rights to protect cultivars is likely to affect the accessibility of germplasm and the transaction costs of procuring planting material from European breeding programs. Raspberry research in BC has concentrated its efforts in developing improved cultivars with little research on the effects of management practices on fruit yields. The development of improved cultivars in the PNW has relied on conventional or classical breeding approaches. With reduced public support for raspberry breeding research in the PNW, breeding programs rely more heavily on support from industry associations. Future prosperity of the PNW raspberry industry would require developing competitive cultivars and promoting intellectual property protection to stimulate market development and the world-wide dissemination of improved cultivars.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
