The initial secret is good material. By using products from an acknowledged producer or distributor, you are assured of having quality products that will be delivered in time. Royal Brinkman supplies the natural enemies of Agrobío. This is one of the largest producers of biological agents worldwide. Delivery times and transport schedules from Spain to the Netherlands are well matched, due to which – also in the event of express orders – fresh material can be delivered in time. 

The second secret is quality check and practical research. Natural enemies are living organisms which makes them very vulnerable products. Therefore, checks on quality after transport and checks on effectivity in practice are extremely important. Our quality team is involved with this every day. As such, we are able to guarantee the quality of the delivered product and advise growers concerning their application strategy. This is highly important for successful suppression.

The third secret is an optimal distribution of the natural enemies in the crop. The more uniformly the bugs are released in the crop, the better the results will be. Additionally, concerning the release of the product it is very important that this is done the right way, to retain the maximum number of natural enemies and to ensure that the can do their job in healthy condition. This can be done manually, but the best results are achieved with:

• The Bio divider in the chrysanthemum cultivation
• The Monorail in combination with the Bio divider in pot plant cultivation (due to the presence of an electrically driven wheel set, this is mainly convenient for horticulturists who do not have a spray boom).
• The Bio slider in cucumber cultivation

The rotating disc in the Bio divider for the chrysanthemums and pot plants ensures that the natural enemies are evenly distributed and softly land onto the crop. The Bio slider in the cucumber cultivation on the contrary, makes use of sprinklers to spread the natural enemies into the head of the cucumber plant.

In this case, the combination of the Agrobío material in combination with the Bio divider, Monorail or Bio slider provides the best result by far, because the device was developed for this material.
