Scientific validation of best practices for almonds through monitoring of an experimental almond orchard
Starting in 2024, XNatura supports Sammontana in a research and development project on the Sicilian almond supply chain through the scientific monitoring of an experimental almond orchard. The objective is to optimize agricultural practices and improve the link between agricultural management and sustainability, developing a concrete and replicable model based on reliable scientific data. The project foresees the integration of remote sensing and in-field sensors to gather evidence on biodiversity and ecosystem services for best-practice initiatives.
Develop a regenerative almond cultivation model based on scientific data.

XNatura has conducted a Remote Biodiversity Assessment of the experimental almond orchard using satellite biodiversity data. The analysis enabled mapping of land use, the structure of ecosystems, and quantification of biodiversity potential in the agricultural landscape.
XNatura’s assessment suite uses recognized protocols to rank your sites’ nature, biodiversity, and climate priority.
