Much of the demand stems from commercial operations looking for local solutions to future food production. A great many of those involved in commercial operations also want greenhouses of their own at home. This trend of high profile commercial customers taking an active personal interest in horticulture is filtering down. So much so that Jamal\u2019s intention is to liaise with the Minister of Agriculture with a view to producing complete turn key systems for residents which will include greenhouses\/AutoPot irrigation technology &amp; fertiliser.<\/p>\n<p>With such a positive, hospitable and helpful ethos it is unsurprising that NABTA are able to achieve so much. As ever its immensely gratifying to see the energy and dedication that distributors like Jamal invest in promoting AutoPot. This drive is especially valuable to us in those regions where the technology may make a real difference now and in the near-future.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_23519\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-23519\" style=\"width: 225px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-23519 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/autopot.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2018\/03\/Quality_and_quantity_with_minimal_overheads-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\"><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-23519\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Above: Quality and quantity with minimal overheads<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_23517\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-23517\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-23517 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/autopot.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2018\/03\/jamal_splendid_NABTA_Agriculture_Demonstration_Greenhouse_Dubai.-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\"><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-23517\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Above: Jamal\u2019s splendid NABTA Agriculture Demonstration Greenhouse, Dubai.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dave Gulliver has grown so accustomed to flying south this winter that he\u2019s started flapping his wings, honking and intimidating children into giving him bread.
