Nuevo sistema lavado fruta

At Fontestad, we have a new fruit washing system: CONTROL-TEC ECO L2. This process washes, disinfects, and rinses our fruit with minimal water consumption. Thanks to our technological advances, we have managed to reduce usage in the treatment lines by 70% compared to conventional systems. The CONTROL-TEC ECO L2 system integrates the most advanced technology to optimize and reduce the consumption of water, detergent, and biocides in the fruit washing process. The automation of the process allows us to minimize losses and maximize efficiency. This technology is authorized by CAAE for post-harvest organic fruit certification.

On our farms, to reduce water consumption, we have implemented various practices and systems to achieve more sustainable and efficient water consumption compared to traditional systems:

  • UniRAM® low-flow drip irrigation.
  • We regularly calculate irrigation uniformity.
  • Use of the AZUD (SDI) system in new plantations.
  • On all our farms, we utilize IOLAND technology for irrigation and fertilizer control. This allows us to reduce water consumption during irrigation by approximately 40%.
