How is Organic Pistachio Grown?

Pistachios grow in regions with long, hot, and dry summers. It is essential for the climate to have sufficient warmth for the fruit's development and ripening. Additionally, the pistachio fruit requires a period of low temperatures during winter. It awakens in the spring months and blossoms in the first half of April. If cold temperatures coincide with this period, the pistachio fruit remains unaffected.

Its native land is Central Asia and the Middle East, and it possesses an extremely delicate tree. To ensure the fruits remain undamaged and can develop healthily until the next harvest, they must be handpicked. The renowned flavor of pistachios has earned them a significant place not only in culinary consumption but also in industrial food production. They have a wide range of uses, from chocolate to deli products, from traditional dishes and desserts to special cuisines.

In addition to the fertilization and disease-pest prevention practices of organic pistachio cultivation, cultural practices such as the selected planting area, variety selection, quality of the seedling, choice of training system, pruning technique, soil preparation, irrigation, and harvest are equally crucial.
