MIMOSA+: Sustainable Production from Field to Freezer

1. Soil Fertility and Health: Improving the health and humus content of the soil, which is critical for crop resilience and sustainable yields.
2. Water Conservation: Emphasising water management techniques such as precision irrigation and recycling process water, ensuring efficient use of this vital resource.
3. Biodiversity: Enhancing biodiversity through cover crops, wildlife corridors, and natural habitats around growing areas to create a balanced ecosystem.
4. Cover Crops: Using cover crops to prevent soil erosion, improve soil structure, and increase organic matter, which contributes to the overall health of the soil.
5. Plant Nutrition and Responsible Fertiliser Use: Precision use of organic and mineral fertilisers to promote optimal plant growth while reducing environmental impact.

Healthy, living soil is essential for sustainable farming. Through the MIMOSA+ programme, we focus on improving soil fertility by using natural methods like crop rotation and organic fertilisers. This not only improves yields but also enhances the nutritional quality of our produce, ensuring that Ardo’s fresh frozen products are both sustainable and nutritious.

Water is a precious resource. Through precision irrigation and innovative water recycling techniques, Ardo is minimising water use while ensuring optimal crop growth. Our water conservation efforts help maintain the natural balance, ensuring that our fresh frozen products are grown sustainably.

A diverse ecosystem leads to healthier crops. Ardo’s MIMOSA+ programme works with nature by planting biodiversity-friendly crops and encouraging natural pollinators. This helps ensure that our fields remain healthy and productive, while our products maintain their natural goodness.

Ardo’s use of cover crops prevents soil erosion, improves soil structure, and increases organic matter. This practice helps maintain soil fertility and reduces the need for synthetic inputs, making our farming practices more environmentally friendly and contributing to the sustainability of our products.

At Ardo, we believe in feeding our crops responsibly. Through the MIMOSA+ programme, we use precision fertilisation techniques to provide plants with the nutrients they need while minimising environmental impact. This ensures that our fresh frozen products are grown in a sustainable and eco-friendly way.
