Promoting bean cultivation in Catalonia through innovative preserves for the Mongeta del Ganxet PDO

The Task Force created (made up of the main canning company, one of the main agricultural cooperatives in Catalonia and the research group specialising in improving quality beans) aims to draft a pilot project to detect the main factors determining the huge difference in quality that currently exists between traditionally cooked Ganxet beans with the DOP and their preserves, and to develop an innovative, objectively superior preserve that, taking advantage of the full potential of the Ganxet Bean DOP, is capable of making its way into the quality canned bean market. This means optimising everything from the production process to the canning and packaging process.
