With its broad range of rootstocks, De Ruiter is responding to the latest developments in the market.
The market is characterised by an increasing variety of cultivation methods and demands, a greater selection of available varieties, and a search for optimum cultivation systems. The choice of the appropriate rootstock is determined by a range of cultivation factors including the type of glasshouse, the variety chosen, the CO2, type of substrate, number of stems per square meter, capacity, and last but not least the grower.
CO2
The CO2 capacity impacts upon crop growth throughout the cultivation season and also affects the choice of rootstock.
Glasshouse
Recently built glasshouses over 5,5 metres tall, larger glass surfaces and greater light penetration guarantee higher production potential.
Grower
Every grower has his own personal strategy. Some target vegetative growth, others prefer a generative crop management.
Variety
To obtain optimum benefit from the variety as well as the rootstock used, both must be well suited to each other.
Substrate
The type of substrate also influences the choice of the rootstock. The plant will respond differently to a generative substrate compared with a vegetative substrate.
