Sustainability
For a greener future
For APOD, sustainability is not a goal to be achieved, but a continuous journey that starts from the land and involves every daily decision.
Circular economy
We recycle agricultural materials and reuse production waste as natural fertilizers, returning to the soil what nature gives us.
Renewable energy
We produce energy through photovoltaic systems (100 kW/h) installed at the San Severo facility.
Rainwater use
We use micro-irrigation systems, rainwater collection and recovery systems, and a purification plant.
Agriculture 4.0
We work every day to reduce the environmental impact of our activities and to build an agricultural model that respects the land and the people who cultivate it.
