In Emmeloord the Koppert and Nemacontrol teams are taking stock of the growing season. The Noordoostpolder is a region in the Netherlands known for the intensive cultivation of onions, which, as a natural consequence, means that the onion and bean seed fly pose significant challenges for growers. Thanks to the use of beneficial nematodes, however, many growers look back on a successful harvest and forward to a future where these pests are well-controlled.

Solynta | true potato seeds: A Future of Potato Growing with Direct Sowing. The #potatoindustry is on the brink of a major transformation, thanks to innovative approaches in breeding and cultivation. At the forefront of this revolution is #Solynta, a Dutch company pioneering the use of #TruePotatoSeeds and direct sowing techniques. Read this at Indian Potato Website https://lnkd.in/eyabfD4h For centuries, potato farming has relied on planting seed tubers. However, this method comes with challenges such as disease susceptibility and difficulties in transportation and storage. Solynta's groundbreaking work with true potato seeds addresses these issues head-on. True potato seeds offer significant advantages: • Disease-free production in controlled environments • Easier storage and transportation • Reduced risk of crop contamination This year, extensive testing of direct sowing methods is underway globally, focusing on optimizing techniques like seed density, sowing depth, and machinery. Early results are promising, with true seeds thriving even in regions previously challenged by disease pressure or seed tuber shortages. A demonstration by Solynta in field at Netherlands showcased the potential: • Variety: SOLHY017 (high resistance to Late Blight) • Method: Simple direct sowing • Yield: 22 tons per hectare •Result: Strong yield with high-quality tubers The implications of this innovation are far-reaching. Direct sowing of true potato seeds (#TPS) could revolutionize #potatoproduction, offering solutions to long-standing industry challenges. It has the potential to enhance food security, improve farmer livelihoods, and create more sustainable agricultural systems. While implementing this change will take time, the benefits are substantial. As global trials continue and methods are refined, we can expect to see new levels of productivity and sustainability in #potatofarming. Solynta's commitment to advancing agricultural practices through hybrid breeding and true potato seeds is reshaping the future of potato farming worldwide. As we look to the future, it's clear that technologies like true potato seeds and direct sowing techniques will play a crucial role in creating more resilient, efficient, and sustainable food systems. The potato industry is evolving, and Solynta is leading the way towards a more secure and productive future in agriculture. #PotatoFarming #AgriculturalInnovation #TruePotatoSeeds #DirectSowing #Solynta #HybridBreeding #FoodSecurity #SustainableAgriculture #CropResilience #AgTech #IndianPotato

Planten Agro has embarked on a dynamic initiative to pilot a plant health monitoring system in collaboration with Rapagra Netherlands. Initially, this system will be tested on five vegetable varieties, followed by our seed potato production field. Satellite monitoring of plant health offers a revolutionary approach to precision agriculture, leveraging cutting-edge technology to enhance crop management practices. By integrating satellite-based imagery with advanced data analytics, this solution enables farmers to optimize their farming activities, improve productivity, and mitigate risks associated with weather variability, irrigation inefficiency, fertilizer misapplication, and pest outbreaks.

“Previously, we used to heat on moisture. Nowadays, we extract moisture from the air by dehumidification using DryGair. We then use the condensed water again for our plants. We send the remaining warm air back into the greenhouse.” – Nursery Zuidplas, gerbera grower In a recent FloralDaily article, Nursery Zuidplas detailed their sustainable gerbera cultivation practices. One important part of which, is using DryGair for dehumidification, energy savings, and reusable water. https://zurl.co/AMFA #sustainability #gerberas #greenhouse #dehumidification #waterconservation #energyefficiency #floraldaily
