This product, a mixture of acetic and hydrogen peroxide, has a contact time of just some hours, and the treatment can also take place in the presence of AC-film. At Van Eck they recommend combining the treatments. "This is the best guarantee for a clean start. First turbo fogging to defuse all the organic material. Then arrange the greenhouse for the new crop. When you get close to planting, cold nebulisation, close the doors and severe hygiene protocol can start. Then you know for sure you starting material for the new season is protected perfectly.”

Busy motnhs
November is the busiest month for Van Eck in terms of horticulture. "But we see that the peak in the Dutch crop rotation slides backward and at the same time crop rotation is getting a wider time-range. Large companies are rotating from June to December to supply all the segments constantly and always meet the demand." Furthermore in cucumber cultivation, growers also regularly chose to disinfect between the first and the second crop. "The burden of diseases in the humid crops is higher and so is the pressure on a clean start."
