Within the scope of the Sustainable Hazelnut Villages Project to be carried out between 2022 and 2024 in the İkizce district of Ordu province, the 4th Working Group meeting was held on 22.06.2023 in the İkizce Vocational School meeting hall.

As the Durak Hazelnuts family, we have been continuing our sustainability practices by expanding their scope every year since 2018.

As Durak Hazelnuts, internal audits of our producers continue within the framework of the 2023 harvest year.

For hazelnut, which has an important place in the economy, producers make a great effort to prevent loss of their products and to maintain their quality by scythes in their gardens shortly before the harvest period.

Practical training was given to the producers in İkizce by the hazelnut experts of Ordu Provincial Directorate of Agriculture and Forestry. Detailed training on hazelnut pests and diseases was given to the producers.

As Durak Hazelnuts, we continue to inform and train our farmers.

The fourth of the Regional Sustainable Export Mobilization Training Program, which was implemented for the first time in Turkey, was held in the Black Sea Region under the leadership of the Presidency of the Turkish Exporters Assembly.

Before the start of the 2023 harvest year, our personnel, who will work in the field, were given training on the following subjects before the training they will give to our producers.

As Durak Hazelnut field workers, our face-to-face trainings with our producers continue.

Lime application, which is usually done in November-December, is of great importance in maintaining the PH balance of the soil, and it positively affects the product quality by enabling the soil to become more productive.
