The Group considers vegetables production as a diversification tool to address the weather risks and generate additional income per hectare. To intensify the production, advanced watering technology is used. In particular, the implementation of the drip irrigation enables to increase the volumes of the grown vegetables and fruits on a permanent basis. Drip irrigation does not only neutralize the weather risks, but also ensures considerable water saving on wetting, optimizes the application of fertilizers and crop protecting agents.
