What does it mean to Grow With OMEX? Technical Manager, Joe Barfoot, gives his answers below.
Having worked in the growing industry for many years, the importance of service and understanding what your customer wants to achieve has always been an ethos I've found important, but never more so than my experience with OMEX.

Innovative research including RNA gene sequencing, and measurement of emissions into the atmosphere is just some of the work OMEX are currently working on, to ensure the best choice for the grower. The range of OMEX products are continually trialled to ensure they are being applied in the most effective way to promote crop health, and in turn yield. The horticultural technical team work with growers to assess their needs, and identify future developments that would aid the industry, which is fed back to the R&D department who work to provide solutions for growers.
