Description:
We are dedicated to providing agricultural machinery for the harvest and post harvest of fruits. These activities are the most labor intensive in an industry that has an ever decreasing supply of laborers, as well as an escalating cost of labor. Through innovative equipment, initially for cucurbit fruits (acorn squash, pumpkin, gourd, and melon) we will increase the productivity and efficiency of this industry beginning in Argentina and continuing on to Brazil, the United States, and Europe. In the future we will apply and achieve this goal to all labor-intensive horticultural fruits in the global environment.
Our machines have won gold medals in Ternium's Expoagro competition's for innovative machines for the harvest and post harvest projects.
