How Levoplant grows stronger with ICL

Delivering beautiful, healthy plants, that’s the goal of Levoplant, one of the largest orchid producers in Europe. This requires high-quality fertilizers and solid fertilization advice. In this area, Levoplant has been working with ICL Growing Solutions for decades. “The collaboration with ICL enables us to achieve optimal cultivation results. It also brings peace of mind: we know the fertilization side of things is well taken care of,” says Danny Immerzeel, cultivation specialist at Levoplant.

Cultivation specialist Danny Immerzeel, who works at Levoplant and its multiple production sites in the Westland region of the Netherlands, has been using fertilizer products from ICL Growing Solutions for more than twenty years. “Good fertilization is the foundation of successful cultivation. It’s a basic condition for producing beautiful, full plants,” he explains. “ICL’s fertilizers play a key role in this. They ensure high and consistent quality.”

Fertilizing success: the value of ICL’s tailored advice

It’s not just ICL’s high-quality products that make the difference. According to Danny, the expertise and tailored advice from ICL’s specialists are just as essential to achieving strong results. Riny Westdijk, Senior Area Sales Manager at ICL, has been visiting the nursery for years. Every six weeks, he walks through the site and tailors his fertilization advice in part based on drain water test results. “Working with Riny is a pleasure,” says Danny. “He listens carefully and can translate what I describe and what he sees in our nursery into well-grounded fertilization advice and customized recipes. Combined with ICL’s high-quality fertilizers, this helps us achieve optimal growing results. And if something doesn’t go as planned, we work together to find a solution.”

AngelaWeb 3.0: precision fertilizing made simple

“Besides ICL’s products and expertise, ICL’s AngelaWeb 3.0 nutrient management tool also provides added value,” Danny notes. The program monitors the fertilization status of the company through the fertilizer tanks and drain water. “AngelaWeb uses real-world figures, there are no theoretical models involved. That’s a big advantage, since models don’t always reflect reality. AngelaWeb 3.0 aligns perfectly with what’s actually happening in the greenhouse. It helps us keep a close eye on things and fine-tune our fertilization strategy.”
