Argentinean Pears

 

Eosta procurement manager Peke van Beek would like to inform you that the overseas pear season has been started! The first shipment from Argentina by boat is ready for transport to your warehouse. We have delicious varieties like (Demeter) Williams and Red Bartlett. Both quality and quantity look very promising. Contact your Eosta account manager for all details and make sure you have your program scheduled as the European season comes to an end from mid March. 

Nature & More grower Sergio shared some photo's and a video from the packhouse in operation. He runs this familiy business in Argentina. Sergio: “We produce, process and market organic pears and apples from the high valley of the Negro river and Neuquén, in Argentina. We grow in line with biodynamic agriculture, building on the ideas of Rudolf Steiner, the founder of anthroposophy. Similar to organic farming, we don’t use industrial fertilizers, pesticides and week-killers. On top of that we use various herbal and mineral additives for compost and field spray and we make use of an astrological sowing and planting calendar. The starting point is that both animal welfare, the environment and fair trade are taken into account when producing food”.

Limes

Moroccan limes provide breathing space in a tight organic lime market

Demand for organic fruit continues to grow, and organic limes are no exception. Their popularity is being driven partly by increasing demand for cocktails, mocktails and homemade lemonades, as well as their wider use in salads, curries and other dishes. Consumers are also increasingly choosing citrus grown without synthetic pesticides and without post-harvest fungicide treatment.

Kivinaki

Kivinaki ready for the new Organic Raingrown Oranges season

Ahead of the new organic orange season, our sourcing team visited Kivinaki in Peru. Over the past four years, we have built a successful export programme with this growers’ co-operative. During the visit, we worked together to prepare for the coming months.

Pineapple

Healthy soil makes organic pineapples more resilient

In Costa Rica, too, the effects of climate change are becoming increasingly apparent. Heavy rainfall, in particular, is making organic pineapple cultivation more challenging and requires growers to be adaptable.
