OUR
MISSION
Fomet Spa has manufactured and merchandized special and natural fertilizers for professional agriculture since 1973; it must be remembered, however, that the first experimental tests were started in 1969. The philosophy of processing and developing its own products has always been the application of natural methods and systems in an industrial context. Indeed Fomet Spa intends to realize products which give a biological activity to the soil, together with humic components, thereby contrasting the ever-increasing productive decline of soils, their progressive destructuration, together with their growing difficulty in production. In particular, the optimal use of these products permits the following:
Over the years, Fomet Spa has acquired a consolidated technical experience of support with respect to the use of its fertilizers; it organizes meetings for bothdiffusion and demonstration purposes, together with guided visits c/o its plants. It collaborates with various research institutes for the development of its own products. Training is carried out through schools and groups of technicians.
