We’re excited to share the latest results of our field tests conducted in Agadir, Morocco. Our new variety of pepper, dubbed “AquaSave,” is specifically engineered to consume less water while yielding more produce. The results are groundbreaking and show a significant advantage in terms of water productivity and yields when compared to local varieties.
🟢 Water Productivity
Our AquaSave variety consumed 30% less water throughout the growing season, thanks to its drought-resistant characteristics. Farmers can expect to save up to 1,200 cubic meters of water per hectare annually with AquaSave, a massive win for arid regions like Agadir.
🟢 Yield Increases
When it comes to yields, AquaSave outperformed local varieties by an impressive margin. Field tests show that AquaSave yields were, on average, 25% higher than those of the most commonly cultivated local pepper varieties. This equates to an additional 2 tons per hectare.
🟢 Taste & Quality
Apart from being water-efficient and high-yielding, AquaSave peppers have passed taste tests with flying colors. Their flavor profile is rich and robust, making them suitable for both culinary and commercial use.
🟢 Environmental Impact
By opting for our AquaSave variety, farmers not only achieve higher yields but also contribute to water conservation, a crucial consideration given Morocco’s frequent water scarcity issues.
🟢Conclusion
The field test results from Agadir are promising for both our company and the local agricultural community. AquaSave peppers offer a sustainable solution that delivers higher yields, water efficiency, and exceptional quality.
We’re looking forward to scaling our operations and making AquaSave peppers available to more farmers in the region.
