Days earliness of the first harvest

Plants under artificial lighting reach their peak production 3 weeks after the first harvest compared to the usual 5 weeks. This is interesting because prices are highest during this period.

Mastering light

Mastering light enables you to meet ambitious agronomic goals; enhancing yield, flavor quality, robustness, fruit color and energy efficiency. However, a common challenge for strawberry growers is the difficulty in finding skilled labor, often limited by the crop’s seasonality. Extending the production period allows for longer contracts, supporting the retention of a trained and qualified workforce.
