If you do not take proper care of your currant bushes, the berries will become smaller and more sour every year.

Why the currant harvest is getting smaller and what to do
In most cases, the cause is depletion or acidification of the soil.
Currants like neutral soils. If the soil is acidic, liming is necessary.

It is also necessary to apply fertilizers regularly, preferably three times per season.
