Planting Acai Seedlings

Our açaí berry specialist in action. Preparing the trees for planting. Açaí palm (Euterpe oleracea Mart.) is an important fruit species native to the Amazonian region. The stem of the açai palm is smooth, slim, generally upright and gray in color. In the adult stage it is of medium height (10 to 15 meters) and has a diameter of 12 to 18 cm. Fruit production begins when the palms are three years old, and the trees become fully productive three years later. We must start daily walks in the açaí forest when fruiting occurs with a period of higher production occurring between July and December, when weather less humid.
