What is an organic product?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Organic products are those that have been produced without the use of synthetic pesticides, fertilizers, or herbicides, according to the indications of the European regulations for organic production. For a product to be organic its storage and logistics must also comply with specific rules to guarantee its traceability.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

1-SUSTAINABLE PRODUCTION<\/strong><\/p>\n

Organic farming promotes sustainable productions, which respect the natural capacity of the soil and the natural cycles of the earth.<\/p>\n

2-SOIL CARE<\/strong><\/p>\n

Use of natural techniques such as natural clearing with livestock and natural fertilizers with pruning remains.<\/p>\n

3-BIOCONTROL OF PESTS<\/strong><\/p>\n

We develop biocontrol methods that protect plantations through the natural interaction between different insects in the ecosystem itself.<\/p>\n

4-PRODUCTS WITH BEST FLAVOR, 100% RESIDUE FREE<\/strong><\/p>\n

Products are harvested at their optimum ripeness, obtaining real flavored fruits without any chemical residue.<\/p>\n

5-INCREASE IN BIODIVERSITY AND CIRCULAR ECONOMY<\/strong><\/p>\n

Growth of plant covers to promote natural pollination<\/a> and the proliferation of fauna and auxiliary flora in ecosystems.<\/p>\n

6-SAVING NATURAL RESOURCES AND CARING FOR THE PLANET<\/strong><\/p>\n

Use of solar panels and water-saving systems<\/a> to minimize our carbon footprint<\/p>\n

HOW TO DISTINGUISH AN ORGANIC PRODUCT<\/strong><\/p>\n

Europe has 13.4 million hectares of organic crops with a steady upward trend. Spain is the country with the most organic farming surface with nearly 17% of the total in Europe.<\/p>\n

All products marketed as organic in the European Union must display the specific leaf logo with stars. Every other country may have additional logotypes or marks.<\/p>\n

In addition, the European Union’s commitment to more sustainable agriculture is evident in initiatives such as “From farm to fork”, in which agricultural companies must reduce their chemical residues by 50%. pesticides and herbicides by 2030.<\/p>\n

In Agribio, as agroecological and organic producers, we are already doing over-meeting these objectives by far and keep on working to reduce our carbon footprint even further, by implementing productions fully integrated into the ecosystems that generate environmental wealth.<\/p>\n

OUR COMMITMENT TO THE ENVIRONMENT<\/strong><\/p>\n

Every time we choose organic raised food we are promoting more responsible ways of agriculture, protecting the environment, and more sustainable ways of living.<\/p>\n

Because our choices can make a big difference in your health and the Planet\u2019s. Are you joining the organic revolution?<\/p>\n
