SUSTAINABLE AGRICULTURE
LEGUMINOUS CROPS
Leguminous Agriculture is essential to generate nitrogen for our tree plantation and generate cash flow until our products are producing income.
-
A short term income through Agriculture is necessary while our tree plantation grows and generates income.
​
-
We focus on Leguminous Crops because they draw nitrogen from the surrounding air and fix it to the soil, supplying the soil with this essential nutrient for our tree plantation.
​
-
The national and international markets are large for the crops we have selected and the variety of crops diversifies risks associated with agriculture.
