Creating the right conditions below the surface
The rootzone is where water, oxygen and nutrients come together. The growing medium plays a crucial role in regulating these conditions and therefore directly influences root activity and plant performance.
Kekkilä-BVB brings extensive expertise in developing and testing growing media for professional horticulture. Its research focuses on understanding substrate properties, water availability and the performance of different raw materials and growing media combinations.
Within the Plant Empowerment network, this knowledge helps growers understand the connection between the rootzone and what happens above ground. By creating growing media that are fit for purpose and managing them according to crop demand, growers can improve water balance, root development and resource efficiency.
