Last year several large commercial producers trialled AutoPot systems for the first time alongside their regular irrigation methods, the results are in and they make great reading! First up, Lemken Nurseries – a commercial strawberry producer in the North West of England \u2013 grew 240 strawberry plants in an easy2grow 60 and recorded an increase in yield of 10.6%! That is great going! As well as the yield increase they also recorded a 12.3% saving in water and fertiliser consumption over their drip irrigated plants. Wow!<\/span><\/p>\n

The second producer is FlavourFresh – a multi-crop nursery in North West England – who used an easy2grow 120 in their strawberry nursery and recorded a reduction in Class 2 fruit from 4.5% across the nursery to 1.5% in their AutoPot row. Class 2 fruit falls outside of the size boundaries imposed by the UK supermarkets and is unsuitable for sale. Therefore, by using AutoPot in their nursery, FlavourFresh have successfully reduced their wastage regarding produce, water and fertiliser consumption.<\/span><\/div>\n

\u00a0We’d like to thank both Lemken and FlavourFresh for using our systems and look forward to more trial results later in the year.<\/span><\/p>\n
