The challenge

The key challenge for the Azerbaijan Flowers Company (AFC) project was developing profitable, specialized flower farm before the holiday season. AFC, a new local agricultural investment venture, collaborated with Netafim to a 3-hectare greenhouse. The focus was on constructing a greenhouse tailored for rose cultivation, with controlled climate conditions, low radiation, and high humidity. Emphasizing sustainability, the project incorporated an automated irrigation and water recycling system. A significant aspect was coordinating with local suppliers and adhering to strict time and budget limits. Successfully overcoming these challenges, the project was completed on budget and in time for the lucrative New Year season.
