Cran Chile has eight farms which consist of 1,025 acres of constructed
cranberry beds, and an additional 2,200 acres of support land, all less than an hour from
our centrally located processing plant.
Every farm has its own mobile bridge, which is utilized for the majority of
growing operations including fertilizing, harvesting, pruning and sanding. An onboard
computer optimizes product utilization and the requisite man-hours to complete most
growing operations. In addition,applications and procedures are completed with exceptional uniformity without the physical damage and waste historically associated with conventional practices. A representative use of the bridge would be our custom designed
harvester. This machine, with eight individually controlled reels utilized to harvest
fruit, is many times more efficient and is extremely bed friendly compared to conventional
beaters utilized in North . |
