Seminar on the ecological culture of Apple trees in Girona

December 2, 2010
On 17 December will take place at Viladamat (Gerona), a seminar on the ecological culture of Apple trees organized by Unió de Pagesos with the collaboration of IRTA.
Organic fresh fruit growing is yet to implement in Catalonia, and particularly in the Girona area. This is due in large part to the technical difficulties raised by this system of cultivation and little research and experience.
In recent years, a group of researchers from IRTA, among other institutions, has started work on this line and will present the results obtained during the day. This day belongs to the set of activities that are performed in the Redbio programme and is part of the annual Plan of technology transfer of giving.
