© Eurofins26. For Eurofins Agro, a vital, healthy, and resilient cultivation system remains the foundation. This means: the right nutrition at the right time and insight into the microorganisms present. With new technologies, we develop services that help prevent problems. Focused monitoring and providing growers and their advisors with practical tools to anticipate quickly are our key priorities for 2026.

For example, in the field of soil health: where we increasingly have techniques available in open field cultivation to analyze soil life in all its facets, new opportunities are also emerging for (greenhouse) horticulture. A healthy mat or (potting) soil forms the basis for a successful, problem-free crop.
"Please feel free to contact us for our extensive range of analyses for various cultivation issues. Many of our analyses are completed within just one working day, so you can act quickly and optimise your crop management!"
