KUBO exist 75 years . Wouter Kuiper : " Ten class ago , KUBO made the changeover from supplying hardware to offering turn - cardinal solutions such as the Ultra - Clima . That ’s a prove standard . The step we are take now is to offer Full - Service Grow Concepts . This means that we will be offering many more services to make launch the greenhouse easier and increase the return on investment .
So we are advising customers on grow , how they can best apply energy , how to achieve their Global - GAP credential and more . You do n’t have to cook up everything yourself . We can also help our client make the perfect organisational pattern , and to school and train their faculty . We can even provide data to assist them wangle their business concern . We can also help to get an investor who believes in nursery cultivation , but has no experience with it , up and tend . "

PYLOT , full computer software for the greenhouse"In improver , we will persist in to focus on our highly valued existing customers who know all the Immigration and Naturalization Service and out of horticulture well than anyone . They too will benefit from the many possibilities offer up by digitization and mechanisation , especially in view of the scale of their companies . At the here and now , everyone connects their information services to each other themselves , with such things as Excel files , because there is no full solution yet . That ’s particularly complex if you have many gardens and multiple crop . But as a grower , you ca n’t have your own software system written – that would be far too expensive .
That ’s why we have set up the software company PYLOT . This summertime we set up the first PYLOT software package package that gathers various data from sensors in the greenhouse and presents these in an orderly manner . In our next version , we ’ll add intelligence . For example , take the turn of fourth dimension you correct the sieve . PYLOT will keep track of that and omen when the concealment wires will break or the motor will be worn out . We can then give advice on the optimal number of screen adjustments and the accurate need for alimony . We are also working on an lotion that will predict when to glean bell peppers . "
try out in our test greenhouse bluelab"This software is now being used in 53 greenhouse . It will recall data from five type of mood computers and is available for five languages and five harvest . By adding more and more intelligence agency , we finally desire to make the autonomously operate glasshouse possible . That is a tangible necessity because there are too few growers for all the greenhouse we will be build in the arrive years . So in parliamentary procedure to allow existing growers to scale up and give investor the chance to mistreat in , mechanisation is essential . We are also part with an Ultra test greenhouse , giving us the opportunity to push boundary , further evolve product and concepts , and suggest our customers even better on how to get more out of our nursery . "
Getting rid of fossil fuels"Finally , we are going to focus on sustainability , because we have to get rid of fossil fuel . There are plenty of opportunities for using residual heat and CO2 in our greenhouses . Soon we will see fully galvanizing driven and autonomously operating greenhouses in which the labour is partly done by robots . And for all climates , from the equator to the opposite circle , we have solutions for profitable and sustainable glasshouse . Ten years ago we said : The futurity of the Greenhouse is Blue . That motto continue equally relevant today . "
