Quantitative Information on Dutch Greenhouse Horticulture is a regular publication that provides current and comprehensive data on production, product prices, and production resources and assets. It offers economic figures, including balance sheets with revenue and cultivation-related costs, which are essential for cultivation and investment plans.
The information presented in this book primarily serves as a resource for greenhouse horticulture companies, enabling growers to draw up business and economic advice independently or in collaboration with information and advisory institutions. Additionally, this information holds significance for various stakeholders involved in greenhouse horticulture, such as suppliers, accounting firms, banks, and educational institutions.
This 27th edition of the book, released in 2023, includes several notable updates compared to previous years. This edition includes:
- Insights into the sector, including area, the number of farms, and farm sizes in the Netherlands, along with estimates for other European countries.
- Estimates of crop production for various significant crops in Europe.
- Investment costs for production assets.
- Budgets detailing the balance and cost prices for essential greenhouse vegetables, cut flowers, and pot and bedding plants.
- Breakdown of electricity and CO₂ supply per period.
- CO₂ footprint analysis per crop, including the impact of different production resources.
