Project overview

An industrial tulip producer in Krasnodar needed to improve stem quality and reduce input costs to maintain export competitiveness. Crop Urbanis audited fertigation, climate and post-harvest handling to define optimisation steps.

Challenges & approach

  1. Nutrient regimes produced inconsistent stem length and thickness.
  2. Irrigation timing caused bulb stress and uneven bloom.
  3. Post-harvest cooling needed refinement to preserve quality during transport.

Our contribution

  1. Rebalanced macro/micronutrient profiles with stage-specific fertigation tables.
  2. Installed moisture sensors and pulse irrigation to protect bulb health.
  3. Defined cold-chain SOPs with rapid pre-cool and packaging adjustments.
