Hydroponics/CEA
There is a global demand for food safety, food availability and food security. This calls for predictability in food production with minimal use of water, reducing pesticides and a strong reduction of the nutrients required. With regard to the cultivation choices that are made, various trends can be observed. The fastest-growing in this field is the so-called hydroponics market. Within this hydroponics or Controlled-Environment Agriculture (CEA) market, we can distinguish various cultivation methods, for example, Deep Flow Technique (DFT) and Nutrient Film Technique (NFT). Flier Systems has all necessary machinery available for physical seed/plant handling and works with a variety of partners that supply the cultivation systems.
