Mirto

Our products

 

Our products, in the Comune di Mirto territories are citrus fruits, olives and walnuts; such a variety is connected to the different
altitudes above sea level, where each part of the farm is located.

The citrus trees, recently implanted, are located in a flat field, alongside a small river, and they are partly lemons, and partly late maturing tangerines "fortuna"; this field is provided with a water well and a drip irrigation system. The citrus trees are grown in a field of about Ha 3.50, in Tiberio location, at 30 meters above sea level, placed at about 5 Km from the sea. The citrus fruits are presently marketed via commercial firms of this sector.

The olive trees, rather old, are grown in Oliveto location, on the slopes of a hill, at altitudes between 50 and 200 meters above sea level, in a field of about Ha 8.00. The produced olives are processed in a local factory, and the obtained olive oil is marketed via commercial firms of this sector.


The walnut trees, very recently implanted in Fontanella location, on the slopes of the above mentioned hill, cover a field of about Ha 3.00, at about 250 meters above sea level. For a commercial walnut fruits production it will be necessary to wait a few more years.
