Our Reseach Library
We believe good farming starts with good research. Explore the tools, methods, and references we rely on to understand our land and make better decisions, season after season.
Monitoring Tools
From Digital Hanging Scale & Precision Table Scale, to
Digital Caliper, Soil Auger, and drone 3D mapping to soil microbiology and chemical analysis, every measurement we take adds to one bigger picture of the farm, season after season. At Scave, we believe outstanding farming means blending traditional knowledge with modern tools and careful, curious observation.
The Water Pond
From river hauls to a rain-fed well, water is now stored underground and ready for the dry months. In Cidadelhe's harsh summers, every drop counts, so we're planting shade trees and windbreaks to protect the pond from heat and wind. The pond feeds the well, and the trees protect the pond, the whole system works together.
Soil Core Sampler
Every good decision on the farm starts with understanding the ground beneath your feet. With a soil core sampler, we dig into the real story of our land, layer by layer, so we can plant smarter and work with nature, not against it.
Weather Station
The weather is the foundation of every decision we make on the land. Our professional-grade weather station at Cidadelhe tracks everything from soil moisture and rainfall patterns to wind speed and solar irradiance, giving us real-time data to understand how the land responds to drought, heavy rain, and fire risk. Because working with nature starts with truly listening to it.
