Pioneering Hydroponic Technology to Lead a New Chapter in International Facility Agriculture Cooperation
As a leading enterprise in China's facility agriculture sector, Guangdong Huawang Agricultural Facility Technology Co., Ltd. has dedicated 19 years to the industry. Through continuous innovation in hydroponic farming, the company has become a national high-tech enterprise, a vice-chairman unit of the Facility Agriculture Branch of the Chinese Agricultural Mechanization Association, and the lead drafter of China's national design standards for Phalaenopsis greenhouses. Focusing on hydroponic greenhouse technology R&D, the company is driving the standardization and internationalization of facility agriculture.
Showcasing Hydroponic Farming Innovations at the Dutch Trade Fair
From June 10 to 21, 2025, the Guangdong Huawang team presented its latest hydroponic farming solutions at the HortiContact exhibition in the Netherlands. As a global benchmark for facility agriculture, the event gathered top-tier technologies and enterprises. The company highlighted its integrated solutions for hydroponic greenhouses, including potted flowers and leafy vegetable production, covering equipment R&D, manufacturing, construction, and installation. Innovations such as modular hydroponic greenhouse designs and intelligent nutrient recycling systems attracted significant attention from international peers, further solidifying the company's influence in global hydroponic farming.
Deepening Hydroponic Technology Collaboration Through Cross-Border Research
Following the exhibition, the team visited Spain to study advanced liquid hydroponic greenhouses, focusing on precision environmental control and nutrient recycling technologies. Spain's hydroponic greenhouses have demonstrated exceptional performance in lettuce grow farmstand applications, achieving high yields and low energy consumption through smart management systems—providing valuable insights for optimizing hydroponic leafy vegetable production in China.
Subsequently, the team toured the Rijk Zwaan demonstration base in the Netherlands, examining hydroponic leafy vegetable cultivation models and varietal innovation. Rijk Zwaan leads in stress-resistant breeding, hydroponic nutrient solutions, and efficient management for lettuce grow farmstands. The two sides exchanged ideas on technology adaptability and localized crop varieties, laying the groundwork for future collaboration.
Global Market Focus: Optimizing Hydroponic Industry Strategies
During the visit, Guangdong Huawang co-hosted a seminar with international experts to analyze regional characteristics and market trends in global leafy vegetable production. Discussions highlighted hydroponic farming's potential to address climatic challenges and enhance efficiency in lettuce grow farmstands. For instance, Nordic countries use hydroponic greenhouses for year-round production, while the Middle East leverages the technology to combat water scarcity. These experiences offer critical lessons for China's hydroponic leafy vegetable industry.
Strengthening "Technology + Global Cooperation" to Empower Hydroponic Farming's Future
The Dutch exhibition and international research tour further enhanced Guangdong Huawang's capabilities in hydroponic greenhouse technology R&D and global resource integration. The company will continue to advance its "technology + international collaboration" dual-drive model, promoting the standardization and scalability of hydroponic farming in China. By helping industries like lettuce grow farmstands reduce costs and improve efficiency, Guangdong Huawang is contributing Chinese solutions to the sustainable development of global facility agriculture.
Through relentless innovation and open cooperation, Guangdong Huawang is writing a new chapter in high-quality facility agriculture development—with hydroponic technology at its core.
