BIO certification for Volmary's herb and vegetable production

Our herb and vegetable production site in Selm was recently certified organic and is now ready to produce certified organic young plants! This means that our herb customers, whether organic or conventional, can now rely on another important building block in the production chain. This is because the use of organic young plants produced in Germany increases the sustainability component enormously. 

At Volmary, we have been working on the continuous development of our production processes for a very long time. In doing so, we focus on sustainable optimisation in order to use our resources responsibly and sparingly and to have as little impact on our environment as possible. Our entire production chain undergoes a constant process of further development.

As a plant breeder, we focus on breeding plants that are resistant or tolerant to fungal and animal pathogens. However, the development of cold- and heat-tolerant plants to combat climate change and the breeding of compact plants that require little or no use of inhibitors also play a major role for us. Natural resources such as water, soil, nutrients and energy are used as sparingly as possible in our plant production.

An important building block is plant protection and the reduction of synthetic pesticides throughout the entire production chain. Integrated pest management is not just an empty phrase for us, but a lived practice. The use and promotion of beneficial organisms is promoted through regular screening of crops. The use of plant strengthening agents, such as Multikraft to vitalise the natural plant defence system, is also part of our daily routine. The promotion of our organic production and corresponding certifications demonstrate the success of our actions.
