# About the farm | Agro-Malz, onion supplier from Żuławy

For generations we have grown vegetables and grains on more than 400 hectares. Onions are our specialty, and our produce goes wholesale to packing houses and processors across Poland and Europe.

## Żuławy silt, soil made for vegetables
Żuławy is a land of fertile silt: heavy, humus-rich soils carried by water, full of nutrients and good at holding moisture. This ground cannot be copied, and vegetables repay it with yield and quality. Onions thrive here because they get even, steady conditions all season long.

## Precision farming, from sowing to storage
We run the whole field with precision farming. It is one of the reasons our yields are high and our work is accurate.

### Precise sowing and guidance
We guide our machines with GPS Trimble RTK and John Deere Auto Pilot, accurate to the centimetre. We drive evenly, with no overlaps or gaps, saving seed and fuel.

### Variable rate and spot spraying
We apply fertiliser at variable rates, giving each part of the field exactly what it needs. In 2025 we tested the Ecorobotix ARA spot sprayer, which uses cameras to detect weeds and spray only them.

### Fast and gentle harvest
A self-propelled harvester lifts the onions two rows at a time, up to 150 tonnes per hour, without damaging the skin. We harvest potatoes and beets with our own machines, each in its own time.

### Drying and storage
After harvest we dry the onions for two to four days and keep them in our own store of around 1300 tonnes. That lets us ship for most of the year, not only after the harvest.

## Why wholesale buyers trust us
For large buyers, quality is not a formality but a condition of doing business. That is why we farm under Integrated Crop Production and test every batch before we ship it.
- Innowacyjny Farmer nomination: Recognition from farmer.pl for the technology we use in the field.
- Exceptional scale in Pomerania: Onions are rare in Żuławy, yet we grow around 150 hectares of them.
- Annual onion workshops: Each year we invite industry partners and share what the field has taught us.
- Every batch controlled: We test for pesticide residues, heavy metals and substances harmful to health.

## More than onions
Onions are our specialty, but we farm more than that. We also grow potatoes, beets and grains, and match the produce to each buyer.
