    You can try applying potassium phosphate, but the lack of light will, ultimately, be the cause of this. You will have to let them multiply until they reach out to a brighter area, or move them to a brighter area. This will be the only fix to the problem.

    This could be due to drought or uneven watering.
    The images don't really identify any disease or pests. Have you had successful berry crops in the past? During fruit development, raspberries require one to 1-1-/2 inches of water (either from rain or irrigation) per week. Insufficient moisture during this time may result in small, seedy berries. During dry weather, thoroughly water raspberry plants once a week. Soak the ground to a depth of 10 to 12 inches.

    In general, it takes two years for a specific cane to produce fruit. It grows vegetatively the first year, fruits the second year, then dies. Meanwhile, new vegetative canes come up from the base of the plant during the second year. These will become the fruiting canes the year after the first batch of canes dies off. If the one-year-old canes are cut off or die back during winter, your raspberries will not produce fruit because you have no two-year-old canes left in the patch.
    Everbearing raspberries grow vegetatively through the summer of their first year, and in late summer/early fall, the tips of the first year canes produce fruit. Those tips die off over the first winter, but the rest of the cane fruits the following summer, then dies completely.

    If you started noticing small fruit in spring, and they are ready to eat by early to mid summer, then they will be summer bearing. If they take until mid fall to ripen then they will be considered fall bearing.

    If it turns out to be a fall bearing type, then this article will help: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/edible/fruits/raspberry/fall-bearing-raspberry-pruning.htm
