The agricultural engineer and researcher also stated that since 2000, our country has significantly incorporated technology into its processes, becoming a benchmark that allows foreigners to learn how we develop and produce cherries.

However, significant challenges remain, such as developing logistics that allow for a harmonious flow of varieties without generating harvest picks, which is our greatest weakness.

He also discussed the benefits that the use of plastic covers has generated in aspects such as harvest date and fruit characteristics, indicating that changing the date generates a higher return, being available during periods when production is lower and providing access to better prices abroad, making this type of innovation very attractive to the industry.
