Fertiprado was founded in 1990 with the aim of sharing with the market the added value inherent in its philosophy: the use of biodiversity and legumes as the basis for a more competitive and sustainable agriculture. This philosophy originated from the research and technical knowledge of agronomist David Crespo. Mr Crespo has dedicated his life to studying production systems based on the use of biodiverse and legume-rich seed mixtures in various regions of the world, collaborating with highly reputable institutions such as the FAO, the World Bank and the Portuguese Ministry of Agriculture.
The development of an agricultural and livestock project based on this philosophy at Herdade dos Esquerdos, owned by the Crespo family, allowed the concepts to be validated and techniques for use and management to be adapted, stimulating the creation of the company as an instrument for sharing and publicising the techniques developed.
We promote a more competitive and sustainable agriculture through the use of biodiversity and legumes, investing in extensive research and technical knowledge, sharing and disseminating innovative and sustainable solutions.
These solutions are placed on the market in the form of biodiverse and legume-rich seeds and seed mixtures, adapted to the objectives of each farmer and the soil and climate conditions of each location.
At Fertiprado we promote sustainable and competitive agriculture, anchored in the strategic use of biodiversity and legumes. Recognising the essential value of biodiversity for the resilience of agricultural ecosystems and the role of legumes in nitrogen fixation, we create innovative solutions tailored to the individual needs of farmers.
Through a research-based approach, Fertiprado provides not only high-quality products, but also technical support close to farmers, aimed at reconciling their economic objectives with environmental preservation and the development of more productive and resilient agricultural systems.
Fertiprado's philosophy reflects its commitment to scientific innovation, environmental sustainability and the economic success of farmers, from the perspective of modern, conscious agriculture.
