The cork cam is one traditional activity with more than two centuries of existence and which, even today,
it is done manually. Every summer, the pods are extracted which will later be used to make corks, agglomerate and
other products To make one sustainable use, and peel the corks without damaging the scorpion, you need
know about
In this course, co-organized by the Agricultural School and the ICSuro, we want to facilitate the knowledge of this tradition and give the basic notions, theoretical and practical, to everyone who wants to improve or start in this activity.
