Rodrigo Gómez Lobo Moreno Manzanero, originally from Herencia, Ciudad Real, has had the opportunity to firsthand experience the innovative and sustainable farming and livestock practices of Luis Lascorz in Ainsa, Huesca, as part of the CULTIVA Program.
Sustainability in Ainsa
Located in Aragon, Luis Lascorz’s farm has stood out for its commitment to tradition and sustainability. Associated with the Young Farmers Agricultural Association (ASAJA), this farm not only maintains extensive and ecological farming and livestock practices, but also serves as a management model for other farms.
Mixed Approach for a Sustainable Future
The Ainsa farm focuses on the production of forages, stone and pome fruits, and the breeding and fattening of cattle. It is known for its management of native apple trees under an ecological regime, maximizing land productivity and promoting biodiversity and ecosystem health.
Innovation in Management and Sustainability
The economic and financial management of the farm is a fundamental aspect that is meticulously addressed, offering a replicable model for effective planning. The incorporation of organic and integrated production practices and methods, especially in the cultivation of native apple trees, demonstrates a commitment to sustainable production and product quality.
Transformation and Direct Marketing
The farm is distinguished by its focus on direct sale of products, both in-store and online, ensuring a closer connection with consumers and guaranteeing the freshness and quality of products. This strategy emphasizes the importance of diversification and agri-food transformation as pillars of sustained economic viability.
Education and Technology in Service of the Land
The commitment to continuous training in areas such as byproduct and waste management, mechanization, and the use of digital technologies reinforces the idea that innovation and knowledge are essential for the sustainable development of the agri-food sector. Additionally, the farm acts as an educational model in the incorporation of environmental and climate criteria into production processes.
Future Vision
The farm in Ainsa is not only a testimony to the economic viability of ecological agriculture and livestock, but also an example of how sustainable practices and innovation can advance together towards a greener and more prosperous future. It is a model to follow for those seeking not only to survive, but to prosper in harmony with the environment.
