Title (in English): 
AgroCircle
Language: 
Slovak
Objective of the project (native language): 

AgroKruh je inovatívna technológia ekologického pestovania zeleniny s minimálnymi energetickými nárokmi (elektrinou), s možnos?ou využitia obnovite?ných zdrojov energie. Zdavá zelenina vypestovaná bez zhut?ovania pôdy, bez škodlivých emisií z dieselových motorov, v rovnováhe s okolitým agro-eko systémom, v bio kvalite a za normálne ceny. Na rozlohe 2ha pôdy je možné technológiou AGROKRUH dopestova? približne 25 ton hodnotnej zeleniny so spotrebou len 4000 kWh elektrickej energie ro?ne.

Objective of the project (in English): 

AgroCircle is the way how to effectivelly produce sustainable vegetables, with small electrical energy input and this energy could come from renewables. Healthly vegetables - without concretion the soil, without danger air emissions from diesel maschines, with balance to the agro-eko system in organic quality & in normal prices. At the space of 2 hectares you can with AgroCircle grow about 25 tons of highly valuable vegetables with consumption only 4000 kWh of electrical energy annualy.
