Pineapples thrive in light soils with relatively low pH. Our farms are located in the fertile valleys of the Roxana de Guápiles and Villa Franca regions of Guápiles, Costa Rica.
This process relieves compaction, promotes air and water movement, and mixes crop residue which improves aerobic microbial decomposition resulting in good quality humus formation. Crops growing on loose, well aerated soils will develop extensive root systems.
