When it comes to nutritional content, Hass avocados are higher in fat than other varieties, which gives them a richer taste and smoother, creamier texture. 80% of avocados consumed in the world are Hass avocados, meaning all other varieties make up only a small proportion of the remaining 20%.
We don’t just seek to supply avocado. We are driven by the desire to provide a quality product to promote good health and well-being. We have successfully produced healthy and productive avocado trees from grafted seedlings at our orchards in Mweiga, Nyeri and Kipkebe, Sotik .
Mixing the desirable traits of the Hass avocado with the resilience of a different rootstock, our crop is disease-resistant and highly productive, bearing fruit of matchless quality. This way, we are assured of the continued thriving of our avocado orchards.
We employ the use of micro-sprinklers in our orchards to efficiently deliver much needed moisture to the crop. Conserving water, supporting the development of robust roots and producing high-quality fruit. Another way we reinforce our dedication to ensure that we produce quality avocados.
Natural pest control is another facet of our sustainable farming practice. We don’t use chemical pesticides but opt for safer methods, like fly traps, instead. This way, we regulate pest populations without causing harm to beneficial insects or compromising the quality of our crops.
