  • "This video provides an introduction to the impressive glasshouse vegetable production systems that have been achieved in the Netherlands, and highlights the techniques, technologies, practices and innovations that have enabled this tremendous productive capacity.
    The success story of how “this tiny country now helps to feed the world” - as is shown in this video - has resulted as anywhere where raw innovation is inspired by the need to improve and become more efficient, rests on these many very creative and hard-working people who have pioneered to bring completely new agricultural paradigms to reality."

    what people always forget about the Netherlands is that the country was and will always be a farmers country, in fact, Netherland was the first European country that starts exporting its fruits, vegetables, cheese, and flowers through the back then dutch east India company, they monopolize every port they could to export their goods, at one point the dutch had control of more ports than England, Germany, France, and Spain combined, the dutch were the ones who introduced Europe with the art of trading food across the sea, the Dutch have always been innovating when it comes to agriculture, so its no surprised that they are dominating the agriculture industry worldwide.

Philips microcontroller NXP can be found in the heart of lots of devices we use everyday. Last but not least have you ever heard of Dutch company ASML ?

    I have a question maybe a silly one but maybe someone can/ wants to answer it. So I live in the Netherlands and comparing vegetables to other countries I traveled to where they use old school soil as growing material I tastend big as differents in taste. The ones growing in soil are smaller maybe les pretty but more flavorful compared to the steril glass house veggies I ate. So I was wondering if the nutrition (comparing the soil grown veggies and the rockwall aka : insulation material) has anything to do with it. Also what the hell Do they put in the rockwall because it does need nutrients to be able to grow that big no?

      Maybe it's a question of lack of stress or interactions with pests or herbivores. In these greenhouses everything is so controlled that the plant doesn't strugle to survive. Usually plants synthetize bitter or aromatic compounds in response to environmental harasses; if they "feel" sure probably won't waste energy to produce them. And probably growers sell better uniform, perfect but maybe tasteless vegetables all over the world.

    • @alexandervlaescu9901
      @alexandervlaescu9901 ปีที่แล้ว

      Taste depends from plant to plant. The staple garlic flavor is derived from chemicals that the plant produces to ward off insect or whatever would try to eat it. On the other hand tomatoes derive their flavor from various carbs synthesized while the fruit is still on the plant and with the help of proper lighting.
      Just comparing tomatoes grown in our country with another purely from a greenhouse vs traditional soil cultivation tells you nothing. You would need the exact same variety. Similar climate conditions (from lighting per day to moisture to temperature , etc). Similar nutrition given to the plant and many similar factors.

      The ideal scenario is to do well for yourself by doing well for others. There is no shame in profiting if is by doing good for the mutual benefit of all. However, after your needs are comfortably met and you are rich, it is even more admirable if you look for ways to use your wealth to benefit humanity even more (like Musk’s missions encouraging free speech and space exploration). It is sad when people allow greed to overtake them and end up harming others in pursuit of wealth or wasting resources on frivolous luxuries like yachts or multiple mostly vacant mansions. Excessive greed is a personal failure of prioritization and empathy, where a person always favors their own wealth even after additional wealth gives them little to no utility. It is the same as a person who overeats and becomes unhealthy and obese while others starve around them.

      the traffic on the highways in the west of the country is about equal to LA rush hour traffic, from 6am to 9pm on weekdays. its not a question of whether you will get stuck in traffic jams, the only question is how many hours you will spend in traffic jams.

      Primary reason for loss of biodiversity worldwide is animal agriculture. 80% of agricultural land in the Netherlands it's used for animals, primary cows. Netherlands is 40% agricultural land. Eat less animal products and you can easily restore biodiversity, no matter where you are on earth, there is no need to 'reduce population'

    Just a moment! There is almost a war going on between the Dutch Dairy farmers and their government about the nitrogen depositions in water and soil... ofcourse dairy business is not the same as horticulture but the point is ‘sustainable agriculture’ as a whole and not separate modules functioning apart from each other.

And many people only learnt Dutch when they were older, so it is not easy to speak it well, without an accent etc. I speak Chinese, English, Spanish, German and Dutch. I am at least making an effort instead of being perfect. Maybe giving a compliment would have been a bridge building exercise?
