Integrated and organic cultivation
Integrated cultivation
In integrated fruit growing, the farmer ensures the orchard’s natural balance while at the same encouraging natural defences. The farmer protects beneficial insects (such as ladybirds) and birds and promotes their spread through targeted ecological measures.
The natural balance
Organic cultivation
Around a quarter of all European organic apples come from South Tyrol. This means that South Tyrol is Europe's largest producer of organic apples and a true pioneer in organic farming. Today, for example, 10% of the total harvest in South Tyrol is organically produced.
All organic
