    BINGO BPA: THE RESPONSIBLE GROWER’S BINGO

    With the goal of strengthening knowledge of Good Agricultural Practices (GAP), División Exportadora developed Bingo BPA, an initiative that transformed traditional training into a dynamic and interactive experience designed to make learning different and more engaging.

    By using bingo as a learning tool, our certified producers reinforced key concepts related to GAP, farm safety, and continuous improvement, demonstrating that learning can also be an enjoyable experience. The prizes awarded during the activity included personal protective equipment and safety kits to support their agricultural work, providing valuable tools for their daily activities on the farm.

    We would like to thank Global Fresh Trading for their support and commitment to this initiative.

    At Palmar, we continue promoting innovative initiatives that strengthen our producers’ knowledge and contribute to the development of safer and more sustainable agriculture.
