In the orchards of PAI flower borders have been planted to attract insects, which help with pollinating the flowers. Also, there is quite a bit of small scale food production for the workers, which stimulates biodiversity. Since no chemical fertilizers and toxins are used, organic crops must be treated with extra care. No herbicides are used, so the plant environment of the orchard will show more biodiversity. The sunny climate in the Rio Negro valley is ideal for fruit production. Fungal diseases are rare and few inputs are needed. Organic fruits are free of pesticides, a healthy choice therefore.
