A MORE SUSTAINABLE OLIVE GROVE, THE KEY TO OVERCOMING THE AGRONOMIC CHALLENGES OF THE CROP

The CEO of Nutrifarms (Sovena’s agricultural division), Vasco Cortes Martins, and the CEO of Kimitec’s MAAVi Innovation Center, Felix Garcia, have signed a strategic collaboration agreement where both companies join efforts to overcome the main agronomic challenges of the olive grove towards crop sustainability.

For his part, Vasco Cortes Martins said “We believe that this agreement with MAAVi Innovation Center will accelerate the knowledge and development of new specific natural solutions for olive cultivation, and will be another step in our path towards sustainability. I am sure that this joint work will allow us to obtain advanced solutions that can benefit the whole sector in the different agricultural challenges”. Félix García added, “We want to accompany Nutrifarms in its transition towards sustainable and productive production in the coming years”.

Specifically, Kimitec’s MAAVi Innovation Center will research and develop customized solutions adapted to the agronomic needs of Nutrifarms of Sovena Group for the control of pests and diseases during harvest, the reduction of environmental stress to which the crop is exposed, the efficient management of water and the increase of production and, consequently, the quality of the harvest.

Both companies aim to reduce the application of chemical synthesis products and mineral fertilizers and, in turn, to achieve the maximum genetic potential of the crop. To this end, MAAVi Innovation Center has created the so-called ‘MAAVi Labs’ and has made them available to farmers in order to develop sustainable and productive solutions to the main challenges of today’s agriculture.

Finally, in 2019 Kimitec inaugurated the MAAVi Innovation Center, the largest biotech innovation hub focused on natural elements. ‘MAAVi’ is the acronym for ‘Making a Vision’ and represents a unique way to produce food with natural solutions, while maintaining efficiency and productivity, and putting the focus on the environment and people’s health. In addition, Kimitec has recently implemented a revolutionary Artificial Intelligence platform called LINNA that is maximizing and accelerating the discovery of new natural molecules for the development of a new generation of biologics.
