Consejos de cultivo
First cork harvest (virgin cork) occurs at age 25 and has lower quality; reproduction cork from subsequent harvests (every 9-12 years) is premium grade.
Cork stripping must be done by skilled workers in summer when the cambium is active; improper stripping can kill the tree.
Cork oak agroforestry (montado/dehesa) with livestock grazing is the traditional sustainable management system — integrates income streams.
