Anti-insect nets.
Higher quality and lower environmental impact
​
Thanks to the anti-insect nets, we do not have to resort to the abundant use of pesticides, thus protecting useful insects and not releasing chemicals into the environment.
Yes fruit!
No Coâ‚‚!
Thanks to an ecosystem based approach on the collaboration between plants and insects we can reduce the treatments! Less greenhouse gases and less consumption!
Sweet fruit!
Very sweet!
Thanks to the characteristics of the soil on which our fruit grows, its Brix degree is among the highest on the market!
Zero added sugars on industrial products obtained from our fruit.

Research and Development - Next Gen Cooperative
We are working on it with extreme dedication
Hydroponics, above ground cultivation
One of the next objectives will be to launch a type of cultivation for strawberries and small fruits in an innovative, soilless way. Fewer parasites, fewer pesticides, less water, more product of significantly higher quality.
Bees! Hives in the orchard for incredible benefits
One of the next objectives will be to involve dedicated figures, beekeepers, to bring hives to the orchard. In this way we will have greater pollination, crop stability, integrated pest management and honey!
Research resistant varieties - More productive
As a Cooperative, supported by solid and competent Partners, we are always looking for new varieties to experiment and implement in our orchards. We NEVER stand still in research and development. All this for tastier and less impactful fruit
