Avozilla, el aguacate gigante que ha recibido ese nombre en honor al “avocado” (aguacate en ingl\u00e9s) y Godvilla (personaje ficticio japon\u00e9s, enorme\u00a0dinosaurio<\/a>\u00a0mutante).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why avozil?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It seems unheard of to want a giant avocado, when sometimes we don't know how to store half a normal avocado. However, it is a reality that we already have avocado crops the size of a melon and that Miguel A. Lurue\u00f1a, disseminator and doctor in Food Science and Technology, has baptized avozilla<\/strong> as a combination of two names.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is not a genetic modification, it is the crossing of two varieties, one Guatemalan with more flavor and another West Indian sweeter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Its weight is approximately one kilo or kilo and a half.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Avozilla properties<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

They are very similar to the properties of normal avocado. If we have to highlight a difference it would be smoothness. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is highly recommended to replace saturated fats and therefore very beneficial for health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cultivation of this variety of avocado<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Although it may seem strange, it is a crop that is already being implanted in our country. Specifically in Granada. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Its care is similar to normal avocado in terms of soil, sandy loam, tropical climate and much need for controlled irrigation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The roots are shallow, therefore the soil should be somewhat sandy, if we water a lot the water is lost and if we water a little the avocado suffers water stress with damage to the fruit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Water interferes with the formation of the precious avocado fat and therefore its control is very important. Soil moisture probes are essential for its control and the considerable saving of water and energy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sensors in avozilla control<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Plantae has extensive experience in controlling the humidity and conductivity of all types of crops, including the cultivation of avocado<\/a>, traditional and intensive<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
