The Challenge
The light parameters tested are supposed to simulate different conditions, allowing researchers to investigate the processes taking place. For instance, they wished to find out how the light spectrum, and especially certain elements of the color red, affect the rooting phase.
Another example is the propagation stage, which can be aided by managing different parameters. Each spectrum of light plays a different role, and the goal is to find out how each spectrum affects each one of the natural processes required for the plant to fully develop as desired.
The Challenge
The company approached HORTIV after evaluating the solutions of several other suppliers who either could not meet AlgaeCore’s technical requirements or were too expensive to make financial sense for its operation. The objective was to enrich their algae with additional light, at the appropriate longer wavelengths and intensities. Their greenhouses receive sunlight, which they wished to reinforce with artificial lighting to enhance yield quantity, quality and efficiency.
Quality is a significant issue because of the extreme conditions prevailing in the greenhouse: above 50℃ and very high humidity, which the lighting equipment must be sturdy enough to withstand.
The Challenge
In the realm of molecular biology research focusing on agricultural growth in
enclosed environments, such as with tomatoes and wheat, maintaining precise and consistent lighting conditions is paramount. The Department of Plant Sciences at a world-leading research institute require stringent standards to ensure accurate results during inspections.
The Challenge
Saffron is renowned for its culinary and medicinal uses but is the most expensive spice globally due to its labor-intensive hand-harvesting process. Traditional cultivation requires approximately 140 flowers to produce one gram of saffron, with fields blooming simultaneously, necessitating intensive labor. This inefficiency has restricted saffron cultivation to countries with cheaper labor, such as Iran, Afghanistan, Morocco, and Spain.
The Challenge
The company is exploring raspberry production due to increasing demand and sees tissue culture as a method that offers cleanliness and robust growth. One major advantage of tissue culture is the year-round production of seedlings, which circumvents seasonal limitations. However, the challenge in the laboratory is to reduce the duration of the growth cycle, optimizing the process to meet market demands more efficiently.
