Slicing up a tomato this winter? Chances are it will have been grown in a #greenhouse (if you are in the EU). More than half of all #vegetables  consumed in Europe come from Controlled Environment Agriculture (CEA).

We are thrilled to announce our investment in CE-Line whose on-site monitoring system gives growers complete control of the nutrient composition of their greenhouse water flows, allowing for optimisation of this very intensive form of #agriculture
