Ethical good practice

Average of 1600 workers

- Planting Mechanization (95% of total)- Little Gem- Iceberg

- Others- In establishment period of new machines to automatic harvest

Agronomical Improvements

Test-Plots:• Studies of resistance to fungi and insects through Breeding Programs and

new varieties - Bremia resistance stumps 1-16 to 1-27 - Nasonovia resistence: period from March to May - Tip Burn resistence - Improved size and weight

• Introduction of new varieties - Multi-Leaf (20 different varieties) - Baby Leaf

• Selection of varieties for the 4 areas of production

Agronomical Improvements

- Soil Preparation: - GPS Guiding in Tractors- New Machinery: bigger and better crop table.- Weed Control:

- Automatic Machinery- Optimization of Herbicides: Pre-planting.

Agronomical Improvements

- New strategies to avoid diseases and insects developed and focused on residue levels under L.o.D., in Colaborations with Chemical Companies (D’upont, Bayer, BASF)

- Efficiency to Use of Water and Fertilizer:- Automatic control based on irrigation plans for every crop/area

- Soil Moisture and control- Control of consumption in Farms- Improvements in Hydroponic System

Agronomical Improvements

• Hydroponic Crop: – Increasing of uniformity of production– Efficient using of water and nutrients– It is not necessary to use herbicide– Improved cleanliness of the product (no contact with the ground)– Different managements of Continentals & Multi-Leaf– Develop of new varieties for this system

Agronomical Improvements
