Intended for the end customer and ready to plant in the field
The Smarttree is an ideal plant format for adapting to the new model of super high density plantations. This model allows total mechanisation from the moment of planting with the aim of quickly creating an efficient productive wall that also reduces costs.
This new model aims to solve the problems of labour availability and costs and reduce the initial investment in support structures.
In the specific case of the olive tree Smarttree, planting can take place in any season of the year, according to the specific climate conditions of the project, avoiding winter in frost-risk zones and the summer in very hot zones.
