During the full harvest, the entire asparagus is harvested – including short stalks. The job of the asparagus grower is to come up with new marketing channels for the shorter produce. No problem if you rethink…

The various innovative marketing concepts of Kirpy users have shown that the proportion of short stems in the full harvest is not a problem at all.

There are a wide variety of approaches.
