VINTAGE 2020
Plantation Boroviček d.o.o. , Novo Selo, Petrinja, was founded in 2018. After a long and studious study of blueberry cultivation in order to achieve top quality of the fruit. Our plantation is 30 ha and we have planted 80000 seedlings. 80% of the plantations are the Duke variety, 10% BlueCrop and 10% Chandler. Our goal is to plant 200,000 seedlings. Our team of experts takes care of every step from planting new seedlings and taking care about existing plants. Only with love and knowledge, it is possible to get top results. We export blueberries all over Europe, and fast delivery and proper storage maintain the best quality of the product. We also work well with the local community and are proud to have become a wheel in the development of Petrinja.
well-being of blueberries
They're full of antioxidants
Blueberries are thought to have one of the highest levels of antioxidants among fruits. The main antioxidant compounds in blueberries belong to a family of polyphenol antioxidants called flavonoids. Blueberries have been shown to directly increase the level of antioxidants in the body.
Blueberries lower blood pressure
Blueberries have significant benefits for people with high blood pressure, which is a major risk factor for heart disease. In an eight-week study, obese people who had a high risk of heart disease recorded a 4 to 6% decrease in blood pressure after consuming 50 grams of blueberries a day.
Improving brain function
Oxidative stress can speed up the brain's aging process, which negatively affects brain function. A 10-year study of more than 16,000 older people found that regular consumption of blueberries and strawberries was associated with a delay of up to 2.5 years.
They lower their blood cholesterol
Oxidation of "bad" LDL cholesterol is a key step in the onset of heart disease. Antioxidants in blueberries are strongly associated with decreased levels of oxidised LDL. Daily intake of 50 grams of blueberries reduced LDL cholesterol levels by 27%
