In a world increasingly aware of the need to protect the environment, sustainable agriculture has become central to modern farming practices. At Cocalni, our cooperative has taken this commitment seriously, implementing innovative initiatives that ensure that our citrus fruits are grown responsibly, with respect for the environment and ensuring a healthy product for the consumer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
One of the pillars of our sustainable approach is innovation in post-harvest treatment. In our new production centre in Vila-real, we have developed a specific line based on natural products. This approach allows us to drastically reduce the use of fungicides, using instead solutions based on natural essences that guarantee the quality and freshness of our citrus fruits. This advancement not only helps us reduce our environmental impact, but also offers a healthier and safer product for our customers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Efficient resource management is essential to achieve a more sustainable agriculture. At Cocalni we have modernised our localised irrigation system, using advanced technologies to ensure efficient water use. This allows us to minimise waste and optimise the irrigation of our fields, adapting it to the specific needs of the crops and local climatic conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We are also committed to clean energy as part of our commitment to the environment. We have integrated renewable energy sources in our facilities, contributing to the reduction of the carbon footprint of our activity. We also use ozone systems for water purification, which ensures that the water we use in our processes is free of contaminants without the need for aggressive chemicals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
