Last week we had an amazing conversation with Roimata Minhinnick of Ngāti Te Ata, our local iwi. This is just one of several conversations we've had over the years as we've developed our whanaungatanga, first over Facebook and then by phone. We share an interest in horticulture, climate change and sustainability. We exchange ideas, articles of interest, news about conferences and trips and what we've learned. It's been a wonderful journey, and very different to so many western relationships, which are often transactional. We don't just get in touch when we need something. This type of relationship which is giving and not expecting suits so much better for the future we want to create. We're thankful for Roimata's support, but also for our growing friendship as we work on how what we can do could improve our local waterways. Aroha mai, aroha atu. Manaaki whenua, manaaki tangata, haere whakamua.

Do you want to meet the project lead of LIFE NextFUMIGREEN ? 🌱 Today, we introduce Carlos Ramos Hernández , Operations Director at FUMI-HOGAR and the driving force behind the LIFE NextFumigreen project, focused on developing natural fumigants for pest control in greenhouses. In this interview, Carlos shares insights into Fumi-Hogar's role in the project and the innovative solutions they’re creating to safely and effectively combat whitefly and botrytis. Founded in 1967, Fumi-Hogar has established itself as a pioneer in the production of autonomous and pre-dosed fumigants, with few companies worldwide able to match their level of quality and safety in production. Based in Málaga, Fumi-Hogar has developed a wide range of fumigant products —from insecticides and bactericides to bio-stimulants and environmental enhancers— for sectors such as public health, food hygiene, and intensive agriculture. What benefits do these natural fumigants bring to intensive agriculture? How will they contribute to improved food safety and biodiversity? To discover the answers to these and other questions, be sure to watch the video to the end! LIFE NextFUMIGREEN is a joint effort by Fumi-Hogar, B&B ASESORES, Comercial Química Massó , Centro Tecnológico Tecnova, BrioAgro España, and FINNOVA FOUNDATION. With a total budget of €2,758,921.01 and 60% funding from the LIFE Programme of the EU, this project aims to implement safer, more sustainable pest control alternatives in greenhouses. 📎 Learn more about the project: https://lnkd.in/dNPeM7MM CINEA - European Climate, Infrastructure and Environment Executive Agency, Adrián Noheda, Yolanda Durán Piñero, Patricia Cavanillas de Bustillo, Andrés Dulanto Scott, EFEVerde, Pesticide Action Network (PAN) Europe Juanma Revuelta Eduardo Mercado Olavarria Adrián Noheda #LIFEAmplifiers #EUGreenDeal #Sustainability #Innovation #LIFENextFumigreen #SustainableAgriculture #ClimateChange #Biodiversity #NaturalFumigants

🇧🇷 On the blog today - a retrospective of our first Community Event in Brazil! Last September, our team gathered from around the world for our first Offsite in Brazil, and to host our first Community Event. 🌎 It was an enriching and festive gathering that deepened relationships with the regenerative agricultural community of Brazil and amplified everyone’s resolve to create a lasting impact. 🚜 Founders Niklas Kluger and Felix Harteneck presented a brief introduction to the company, about the need for carbon removal, and the crucial role that agriculture in Brazil plays. 🚜 The agricultural stakeholders who presented following this were united in their commitment to take the ideas of carbon removal and soil remineralisation to their neighbours and friends.

In collaboration with the agronomic group SATA, we have launched a pilot project on over 3 hectares representing the most ambitious form of intercropping between vines, fruit trees, and forest plants. This project, part of the "VitiSilva" program, aims to enhance product quality, and environmental sustainability and promote biodiversity. Additionally, we plan to create biodiversity corridors and open pedestrian and bicycle paths to the public, thus integrating the concept of "common good" with entrepreneurial success.

Weeds can stifle the growth of the 'healthy crops' ..... Just like a field, an office is a place where growth is expected. These 'weeds' could be: - Negative attitudes - Unhealthy competition - Lack of communication - Resistance to change - Absence of teamwork Weed out the negativity! 👉🏽 Create an environment that encourages positivity, teamwork, and open communication. 👉🏽 Promote a culture of growth and learning, where everyone is given the chance to thrive. 👉🏽 Similarly, a positive work environment brings out the best in employees...

Small-scale farmers support local economy by providing jobs. Through exports small scale farmers can earn much needed foreign currency. Small scale farmers invest profits back into the local economy, which can create equitable growth and opportunities for rural youth. Small-scale farms can foster community engagement and capacity development.
Proud to partner with UK Embassy in Zimbabwe to drive inclusive growth in Zimbabwe’s horticulture! Through our HDC Hub & Spoke Model, we’re integrating smallholder farmers into the supply chain, supporting sustainable growth and resilience. Grateful for this impactful partnership! Pete Vowles

In any business, price is an important influencer. Consumers usually don't think twice in case of one-time buy - be it essential, comfort or luxury. But, when it comes to daily essentials like staples, vegetables, groceries etc., consumer behaviour is "analysing" and "comparing". My blog below, attempts to conversate pricing of food products, especially the traditional ones. Just a 4 mins read for those who are extremely busy :-)
