The Irritec group is pleased to announce the creation of a new branch in Peru, to develop and consolidate its presence in such a strategic market as South America, where Irritec already has a presence with branches in Brazil, Mexico, Chile and now Peru.
Irritec Peru has been created with the aim of offering clients an even more complete and efficient service, guaranteeing support during the installation and post-sales phases thanks to a more widespread distribution capacity.
Furthermore, through the Irritec Academy training centre, Irritec offers small farmers the opportunity to participate in on-site courses and training to gain further knowledge in the field of precision irrigation.
Irritec Peru will help support local agriculture by offering an even more integrated service and promoting the use of drip irrigation and fertigation systems in one of the world’s main agricultural regions.
Indeed, Latin America and the Caribbean accounts for 14% of global food production and 45% of net international agri-food trade, with almost 50% of the employment (FAO, April 2021).
Therefore, high agricultural productivity requires the adoption of sustainable agri-food systems that can guarantee the preservation of the biodiversity, a more efficient use of water and greater equality and social equity for the small farmers and indigenous peoples.
