This young, Brittany-based tomato producer has chosen to produce great-tasting tomatoes by using suitable varieties and varieties with high levels of electrical conductivity (EC). For each of the varieties that he grows, he must define the best balance between the generative and vegetative parts of the plant. For him, monitoring crop data is essential.
The Saveurs d’Iroise greenhouses are managed by François Pouliquen and Éric Séguillon and their produce can be found in almost the entire Savéol range. In view of the current economic situation, the search for solutions to help control production costs is having an impact on the company’s technical choices.
David Potereau, tomato producer based near Brest, uses e-Gro as a yield forecasting tool and to ensure that the choices made during production are the right ones. Through his observations and exchanges with Grodan, which he happily shares as a partner, he contributes to the improvement of the software platform of the stone wool slab supplier.

After a search with different growing media, they are currently using Grodan stonewool plugs.
