About this Event
Grow smarter, grow cheaper, grow better
In today's challenging horticulture industry, the pressure to adopt sustainable growing practises is unavoidable as traditional tools used by growers are either restricted or banned. This has led to concern about higher input costs and increased crop loss – pressuring already thin profit margins and putting the financial viability of your business risk.
But what if these sustainable practises could help you to grow crops more profitably than ever before?
At Fargro, we have pioneered a new agronomic approach that boosts profit margins, by reducing input costs and almost eliminating crop loss, all whilst utilising environmentally sustainable products. We achieve this through the targeted and complimentary use of low-cost and environmentally friendly inputs in a system that enables them to add up to more than the sum of their individual parts.
We call this Holistic Growing.
In these expert-led seminars, whether you’re an edible or ornamental grower, we will explain how you can easily utilise the principles of holistic growing to maximise your yields, reduce waste, and improve operational efficiency. Join us to discover how our new strategies for success can help you to grow your business in a way that supports both your financial and environmental goals.
