Smart
tips
Care
Avoid pressure and stacking courgettes—the skin is sensitive to bruising and damage.
Store separately
Courgettes are sensitive to ethylene gas. Avoid placing them next to ethylene-producing vegetables like apples, pears, and tomatoes to prevent quicker wilting.
Presentation
Place courgettes next to products like aubergine, bell pepper, and tomato to inspire customers and boost sales.

Growing Method
BelOrta courgettes are grown both in open fields and in greenhouses on substrate or soil. Open-field cultivation gives a firm texture and pure flavour. Greenhouse courgettes grown on substrate develop under optimal conditions, ensuring consistent quality. Greenhouse cultivation in soil combines the best of both worlds, with natural growth and protection from the weather.
