The production business is a separate unit, provided with a suitable management structure and all the necessary technical facilities. Fruitplant works constantly on advancing production techniques such as grafting onto the “pushing bud”, branching techniques and on treatment techniques. Great importance is attached to the training of staff. Practical trainees from many countries value the opportunity to expand their knowledge at Fruitplant for their future careers working in tree nurseries. The location close to the sea, the soil structure, and the great distance from orchards are crucial factors for obtaining naturally matured, healthy plant material.
