Comit Farm's Waikerie and Pinnaroo farms break with tradition to create new growing benchmarks by constantly developing ways of improving growing and harvesting techniques.

How is this achieved?

• Sophisticated mechanisation, superior ground preparation, the best seed and attention to detail.
• The farming operations use the world's latest growing and harvesting techniques and only ecologically-sound farming practices.
• Potatoes are harvested at night during summer to capture ideal temperatures and are always washed within hours of harvest to ensure optimum freshness.
• All raw produce is also transported from the farms by tautliner trailers to minimise the effect of weather conditions.

Onions are harvested at Waikerie in February, March and April. The farm has cool room storage capacity for almost 10,000 tonnes of onions, including one of the largest cool room storage facilities in Australia. Outside storage reaches almost 9,000 tonnes. This enables it to meet market demands through to December.
