Marketing - Agriculture / hydroponics | | English term or phrase: therefore past their best | Si parla di coltivazioni idroponiche.
Riporto la frase per intero:
"He advertises his crop as grown organically in hydroponics, because apart from the fact that he has no certification, he is using a low water consuming technology, producing on the island high quality fresh foods which would have otherwise been imported from faraway regions, therefore past their best, and expensive".
Come interpretereste l'espressione "therefore past their best"?
Grazie per la collaborazione. |
