III International Forum of Almond and Pistachio - Technology and Ecology

In recent years, a change has been taking place in the cultivation of nuts in Spain. The new intensive plantations provide precocity, total mechanization, continuous harvesting and high production. There is still room for improvement in the advancement of agronomic management of these plantations so that we opt for efficient and sustainable production models both economically and environmentally. The III Almond and Pistachio Forum aims to highlight this production model and transfer to the producer the most appropriate cultivation techniques to make a profitable and sustainable crop, in addition to addressing the possibilities offered by organic production.
