Sustainability

We contribute to the agricultural and economic development of the Vega de Antequera

Over the years, the Cooperative has worked alongside its members to drive the agricultural and economic development of the Vega de Antequera, focusing on the following key areas:

  • Agricultural Stability and Viability: We provide our members with security for their crops, promoting sustainable practices that ensure long-term profitability.
  • Fresh and Healthy Products: We supply markets with high-quality food, harvested directly from our fields, guaranteeing exceptional freshness and flavor.
  • Job Creation: Every year, we generate hundreds of direct and indirect jobs, strengthening the region’s economy and providing development opportunities for local residents.

All these factors have contributed to making our cooperative a socially responsible company, fostering solidarity and common well-being among our members and workers throughout the years.

We provide stability, viability, and security for our crops.

At Horticultores El Torcal, we adopt innovative measures to minimize our environmental impact and promote a sustainable agricultural model:

  • Renewable Energy: We have installed photovoltaic systems for self-consumption, reducing our reliance on traditional energy sources and lowering our carbon footprint.
  • Efficient Water Management: We use drip irrigation and monitoring technologies to optimize water resource usage, adapting to climatic conditions and preventing waste.
  • Preservation of the Rural Landscape: Our commitment to the environment drives us to preserve the rural landscape, respect ecological balance, and promote environmentally friendly agricultural practices.

These actions not only guarantee the quality of our products but also reflect our commitment to preserving natural resources for future generations. Our sustainability model aims to balance agricultural needs with environmental protection, ensuring a positive impact on both our surroundings and the community.
