For the month of June, GreenHouse Eco-Cleaning, Fresh Direct and Limoneira joined forces to bring the best of all three worlds to their respective customers in one neat, lemon-fresh package.
Known for its dedication to the highest standards of 'green' cleaning, GreenHouse Eco-Cleaning provided each of their customers with complimentary Limoneira Lemons along with an innovative natural cleaning recipe. Their customers were directed to stock up on versatile, fresh Limoneira lemons from FreshDirect, and FreshDirect clients received 10% off GreenHouse Eco-Cleaning services in the bargain.

(GPS) Global Positioning System Mechanical Planting Technology Yields Benefits for Limoneira's Northern Farming Operations
 Efficiency, productivity and sustainability are key components in global farming production and Limoneira spends considerable time, energy and resource to ensure state-of-the-art agricultural practices. For example, GPS guided mechanical planting technology is employed in our farming operations. There are many benefits to this technology: Perfect Plant / Row Alignment allows for the mechanization of weeding, pruning, and harvesting Tree / Branch Development - Exact distance between each tree means that branch development is uniform, allowing consistent yield for each tree. If trees are not planted exactly the same distance apart, branches of trees can cross, causing alternation of yield with some trees producing larger amounts of branches, but less fruit. This results in lower yields. Less Damage to Plants - Planting mechanically guarantees less damage to plants, which means a lower percentage of losses during the plantation establishment. Superior Root Development - When planting is mechanically GPS guided, the machine opens a deep ditch in the soil, under the exact place where the plant will be planted. This allows a larger development of the roots as they find the earth broken, also allowing faster growth rates and better plant nutrition, hence an earlier and larger harvest. Higher Planting Speed - Higher speed in planting allows plantation establishment and harvesting to be completed sooner, resulting in earlier yields. |
