Introduction

 


A complex trade


All over the world, the trade in horticultural products is not only expanding fast, it is also becoming increasingly complex. For instance, some international companies are moving their production to wherever cultivation and economic conditions are best - while maintaining the elaborate logistics of their home markets.

 

 

Similarly, the flowers, plants, fruit and vegetables imported into Europe, North America and Japan are now subjected to ever stricter quality controls. The Netherlands is a country that exports half of its agricultural output, yet its supermarket shelves are full of foreign products.

 

 

This changing context means there is a growing need for professionals with a full understanding of the horticultural chain - people who can base their decisions on sound analyses of complex situations. People like you, perhaps.
