THE PHILOSOPHY OF CULTIVATION

The philosophy of work that the industry has maintained since its beginnings is of cultivation crafts, in the following aspects:

1.- Maintenance of the ecological production model based on the family economy, without prejudicing the necessary competitive ability that guarantees greater quality to the consumer at a more affordable price.

2.- Carrying out work in tune with the environment, using non-aggressive technologies for the living beings that we are cultivating, the mussels, and incorporating innovations that research provides us with.

3.- No genetic manipulation, no biotechnology, etc., as long as scientific checks aren’t made to ensure that the obtained products are generally totally harmless and specifically for the health of consumers, and as long as society doesn’t approve.

4.- The Galician Estuaries are areas of huge production, that is, here a very important outcrop of plankton is found, from which the cultivation is extensive, without manipulating the environment nor artificial feeding.  Solely placing the mussels in the cultivation ropes in the most efficient way so that they obtain the best nourishment from the sea, the phytoplankton.

5.- The health of the Galician Mussel is totally guaranteed, and there will be no use of medicines, vaccines or any other pharmalogical or chemical products, preventative or curative, in its cultivation and handling.

6.- Fresh, with no added preservatives.  That is how the Galician Mussel will be marketed, and in 100% recyclable containers.

In summary, we recognise the right to equality for all consumers to be able to get a product of very high nutritional quality at the most reasonable price.
