Hydroponic greenhouse delivering clean produce with IPM
Crop Urbanis optimised NFT, drip and ebb-and-flow systems at a Moscow research greenhouse, pairing refined fertigation plans with IPM workflows to stabilise high-value vegetable output.
The vegetable experiment station ran multiple hydroponic systems but faced inconsistent yields and pest outbreaks. Crop Urbanis was asked to implement IPM strategies and optimise fertigation to demonstrate sustainable gains.
Challenges & approach
Coordinate IPM across NFT, drip and ebb-and-flow systems with different microclimates.
Reduce nutrient solution variance causing stress in fruiting crops.
Document results for publication and replication in commercial settings.
Our contribution
Conducted pest pressure assessment, introduced biocontrol agents and scheduled scouting routines.
Adjusted fertigation recipes by crop family, integrating dissolved oxygen monitoring and staged irrigation pulses.
Delivered bilingual IPM manuals and trained staff on record-keeping aligned to research publication standards.
