Commercial Greenhouse project summary
In 2018, a special greenhouse project was initiated in the town of Dolní Lutyně in the Czech Republic. This project, divided into three phases (Phase I 5.2 ha, Phase II 6.0 ha, Phase III 3.3 ha), serves as an exemplary model of sustainable agriculture that minimizes resource consumption while also avoiding the use of chemical pesticides. Pest control is managed naturally through biological protection. This is one reason why they can boast the first prestigious international certificate for pesticide residue-free products in the Czech Republic. The project has made a significant social and economic contribution to a region with a high unemployment rate by providing stable employment for more than 200 people. It also contributes to the diversification of the Czech agricultural sector and reduces the need for vegetable imports.
