Cultivation/production methods:
Cacay is grown in agroforestry systems that promote sustainability and conservation of Amazonian biodiversity. Unlike other nuts, its cultivation
does not require irrigation and its processing does not use water. The flowers of the cacay tree produce a very sweet nectar that attracts bees
and other natural controllers. These insects improve pollination and protect the tree from pest attacks, generating a biological control.
The CACAY in Colombia:
Colombia is a pioneer in the industrialization of cacay and is the largest producer of this fruit, with around 1,000 hectares planted, which benefit
more than 750 peasant and indigenous families in areas traditionally affected by conflict. It stands out for its sustainable production in the Eastern
Plains and the Amazon.
