Science and Regeneration
Agroforestry cacao as a comprehensive solution to the systemic crisis in Veracruz.
Agroforestry cacao as a comprehensive solution to the systemic crisis in Veracruz.
Faced with the exhaustion of the traditional agricultural model, we propose an alternative based on diversification and ecological restoration.
Citrus monoculture offers seasonal and low-income employment. This has caused migration and abandonment of the countryside.
Intensive use of agrochemicals has eliminated soil microbiology, drastically reducing its natural fertility.
Cacao cultivation under shade regenerates soil structure and requires specialized technical management, generating dignified employment.
This is how the land responds when treated with respect and science. Real comparison of our demonstration plots.
Compacted soil and scarce vegetation cover.
Recovery of structure and green cover.
We design three planting densities adapted to specific objectives:
Designed for maximum canopy recovery and production of precious woods in the long term. Ideal for buffer zones.
The standard model for regional replicability. Optimal balance between economic production (cash flow) and ecological restoration.
Maximization of profitability in smaller areas. Requires skilled labor for rigorous pruning.
The project is based on collaboration with the Universidad Veracruzana (UV). Its researchers validate our protocols and supervise genetic selection.
With an installed capacity of 70,000 plants per year, our nursery serves as a center for high-quality genetic propagation to spark productive conversion in the region.
Establishment of the Mother Nursery (70,000 plants). Planting of +10,000 native trees and first 6 hectares under agroforestry system.
Selection of elite scions supervised by UV. Field grafting campaign to ensure fine-flavor aroma profiles.
Cacao formation pruning and shade regulation. Timber trees reach functional height.
Obtaining the first productive pods (trial). Validation of fermentation protocols.
You can directly contribute to the expansion of this regenerative model. Your contribution goes entirely to field operations.
