Citrusvil’s Model of Operational Excellence

Fundación ProYungas, under the coordination of Roberto Cáceres, conducted a mammal survey at Citrusvil’s orchards which reinforces the balance between sustainable production and environmental preservation.

At Citrusvil, we promote research and innovation by creating new products, streamlining processes and strengthening customer relations.

Citrusvil implements an innovative practice within the framework of the circular economy by eradicating lemon plantations that have completed their production cycle. These trees are shredded and converted into chips that are reincorporated into the soil, thus closing a circle that began more than 25 years ago.

The uniqueness of the lemon tree manifests throughout its life cycle. This tree stands out due to its capability to adapt to various weather conditions, which makes it possible for the lemon tree to survive in different environments throughout the year. In addition, its resistance and versatility turn it into a tree of great significance both for agriculture and landscape.
