Challenge

Greenhouse growers across the world face mounting pressure to increase production while minimizing environmental impact and labor costs. Traditional static growing systems often limit space efficiency, require high manual input, and result in inconsistent growing conditions — all of which constrain profitability and sustainability.

The challenge is to find a solution that maximizes output while optimizing the use of resources, space, and labor.

Solution

Viemose DGS has developed a cutting-edge Moving Gutter System that transforms modern greenhouse operations by introducing mobility, automation, and intelligent control into leafy greens and herbs production.

This system, successfully implemented at Ostrowit, a leading Polish indoor farming company, automates the movement and spacing of plant gutters throughout the growth cycle. The spacing between plants is gradually adjusted as they grow, ensuring ideal conditions for light exposure, air circulation, and climate control.

Key benefits include:

  • Optimized space use by reducing the need for permanent aisle space
  • Improved working conditions, with easier access for planting, maintenance, and harvesting
  • Automation of repetitive tasks, reducing labor intensity and cost
  • Precision in crop handling, resulting in consistent growth and higher-quality yields
