It's peak strawberry season at the moment, with the fruit being sold for as low as $1 a punnet in some supermarkets.

Although this is great for consumers, it has been terrible for farmers.

Queensland strawberry growers are now struggling to survive what they say is the worst glut in the industry's history.

Last week one of the state's iconic strawberry farms shut its doors — and there's concern more farms will follow.

Growers are calling for an inquiry into the role of the major supermarkets in driving down prices.
