Akarsu, who started working in the agricultural sector after retiring from the civil service, is having a successful process with artichoke cultivation.
High Efficiency and Delicious Products
Akarsu started production by planting the artichoke seedlings he bought about 3 years ago in his field in Sarıcakaya. Stating that his products are as delicious as the artichokes coming from the Aegean region, Akarsu emphasizes that each seedling produces products for approximately 7 years. Akarsu, which achieved high efficiency in this process, surprises the people around it with the quality of its products.
The Manufacturer Who Cannot Keep Up with the Demands
Akarsu, who sells the artichokes he and his wife produce in the market, states that he sometimes has difficulty keeping up with the increasing demands. Akarsu, which markets its products by promoting artichokes in Eskişehir, reaches customers by exhibiting its products in marketing areas supported by Tepebaşı Municipality.
