Our Leaderboard
The Agriculture sector in India drives 17% of the GDP and provides employment to 58% of our population. India is the number 1 producer of Bananas in the world and yet we export less than 1% of the World’s Bananas. We are constantly working with our farmer communities to change that one leap at a time..
Pillars of Trident Agro
Farm Sustainability
-
Zero Waste Banana Output:
Bananas are one of the most widely grown fruits in the world, and at Trident Fruits we create tremendous value from Banana through a variety of byproducts. - Agro-Forestry: At Trident Fruits, our world class agro-forestry method involves integrating banana cultivation with other crops and trees. It enhances biodiversity, improves soil health, and provides shade, which can reduce water evaporation and pest pressure.
ESG Driven Approach
- Water Management: Our effective water management practices, such as rainwater harvesting and efficient irrigation systems, help conserve water resources and improve resilience to climate change. These initiatives are critical in regions like Ecuador, where water scarcity can be an issue..
- Integrated Pest Management: Our unique approach combines biological, cultural, and mechanical practices to manage pests sustainably. By reducing reliance on chemical pesticides, IPM minimizes environmental impact while promoting biodiversity and protecting farmer health.
Fair Trade & Farmer Upliftment
- Farmer Wages: We strive to participate in Fair Trade programs, which ensure fair wages, safe working conditions, and community development. This certification promotes ethical practices and empowers workers, enhancing social equity.
- Farmer Training & Community Engagement: Trident Fruits is actively enhancing farm worker conditions by providing comprehensive training programs on sustainable practices and workers' rights while also engaging with local communities to support health services, education, and childcare initiatives.
Our Activities
Irrigation System
Thriving on consistent moisture, bananas require reliable year-round irrigation. Micro-sprinkler and drip systems dominate the scene, delivering targeted water directly to roots. This conserves water, minimizes runoff, and works well on uneven terrain.
