Quentin Gomis, Biogrow Substrates, on the Mexican market:<\/p>\n
“We see an ever-increasing interest in hydroponic growing<\/strong>”<\/p>\n “Ever since I was a little boy, my dad took me to the greenhouses where he worked. From a very young age I knew everything about growing tomatoes: the planting, the seedlings, taking care of the growth, and picking them,” says Quentin Gomis. He has just been hired as the new commercial manager for Biogrow Substrates in Mexico and, together with their local partner Toyo Kasei, will help this market grow. \u201cI have always believed the future of agriculture should be sustainable, and now it\u2019s the turn of my generation to help move the industry even more in that direction,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n Responsible products<\/strong><\/p>\n Quentin has noticed that this movement is already going on in Mexico. \u201cLittle by little, farmers and growers are changing their ways. The world is changing and consumers are becoming more and more demanding with regard to ecologically responsible products. It\u2019s a big challenge for growers to change their ways of working and the transition to becoming sustainable can also be a synonym of \u201cbig investment.”<\/p>\n However, growing in a more sustainable way also presents the growers with many advantages. \u201cWe see an ever-increasing interest in hydroponic growing, which is in large part due to growers noticing that they can produce up to three times more when using coco peat substrate compared to growing the conventional way.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Quentin Gomis, Biogrow Substrates, on the Mexican market: “We see an ever-increasing interest in hydroponic growing” “Ever since I was a little boy, my dad took me to the greenhouses where he worked.
