Safe quality cultivation

From initial inspection of the soil in the spring in the fixation of onion in the fall, we give the onions and its prospects for growth 100% of our attention.

Nothing is more important than this phase of the work. No sorting or packing machine can rescue a poorly managed and harvested onion and therefore control of the plantations the most important work we do throughout the year.

Approximately 10% of the cultivation is onion sets. The remaining culture is sowing the onion that is more shelf-stable. We want to provide our customers with our fine Swedish and self-produced onions over the winter and so far into spring as possible. This method, put onion sets, we use as a supplement for us to get started with the sale of Swedish-produced onions in the beginning of August each year.
