Pineapple, grown with nature<\/h2>

Most pineapple is grown in open-field monoculture. The plants stand in full sun, the soil lies bare between cycles, and when yields drop farmers clear new land. In Benin, farmers often crop only a third of their pineapple land at a time and leave a third in fallow so the soil can recover.<\/p>

ECOTOP brings Dynamic Agroforestry to pineapple. Pineapple goes in at the start of the system, together with maize, cassava and pigeon pea, while young fruit, timber and biomass trees grow up around it. Pruned branches and leaves cover the soil, and the trees shade the fruit in the hottest months.<\/p><\/div><\/section>

We look at your fields, soils and water and at how pineapple is grown today, and run an introductory Dynamic Agroforestry workshop.<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Together we design pineapple systems for your conditions: pineapple in the lower stratum, maize, cassava and pigeon pea in the first months, then fruit, timber and biomass trees.<\/div><\/div><\/div>

B\u00e9nin<\/h2>

In Benin, ECOTOP works with Tradin Organic and the RePAB cooperative to move more than 1,600 smallholders to Dynamic Agroforestry. Training combines field days with digital lessons on the SkillEd platform, and farms are working towards Regenerative Organic Certified status. Women carry much of this supply chain, so the project includes governance training aimed at them.<\/p><\/div>

La diff\u00e9rence<\/p>

What Dynamic Agroforestry brings to pineapple<\/h2>

Soil that recovers<\/h3>

Pruned biomass covers and feeds the soil and holds moisture, so the same land can carry crop after crop instead of being left fallow.<\/p><\/div>

Shade against fruit burn<\/h3>

A light canopy protects the fruit from sunburn and heat stress during heatwaves.<\/p><\/div>

More than one harvest<\/h3>

Maize, cassava, pigeon pea and later fruit and timber trees grow on the same plot, so income does not depend on pineapple alone.<\/p><\/div>

Organic from within<\/h3>

Fertility comes from pruned biomass grown on the plot, with no synthetic fertilisers or pesticides, which fits organic and regenerative certification.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/section>
