Training for crop staff

Well-trained crop staff are essential for a healthy, productive, and efficient crop. With practice-oriented training, we increase your employees' knowledge and skills and strengthen their understanding of the relationship between the plant, climate, and cultivation strategy.

Wim van der Ende explains to crop staff in the greenhouse

We tailor each training to the participants' knowledge level, the crop, local cultivation conditions, and the company's goals. We always link theory to recognizable situations in the greenhouse, so employees can apply what they've learned immediately.

We work with small groups, where possible in the team's own language and always close to the crop. Growers who invest in their people see the results in more uniform crop work, faster reporting of anomalies, and a calmer, better-managed greenhouse.

Topics covered in the training

  • Basic principles of plant physiology
  • Cultivation planning and cultivation strategy
  • Balance between vegetative and generative growth
  • Plant load, crop balance, and greenhouse balance
  • Climate control and the effect of temperature, humidity, light, and CO2
  • Irrigation strategy and watering
  • Fertilization, nutrition schedules, and nutrient balance
  • Integrated pest management (IPM), crop protection, and farm hygiene
  • Scouting and early detection of pests and diseases
  • Recognizing and recording abnormalities in the crop
  • Efficient and careful execution of crop work
  • Crop work

During the training, employees learn not only what they should do, but especially why certain cultivation measures are needed. As a result, they recognize changes in the crop earlier, communicate better with those responsible for the crop, and contribute more consciously to quality and results.

The training can be given at the grower's site or in another suitable training space, tailored to the wishes and possibilities of your company.
