Agricultural Consultancy
Practical Solutions for Existing Agricultural Operations
The Green Van provides technical consultancy for farms and agricultural businesses looking to solve problems, improve production, reduce costs or transition toward more sustainable and regenerative practices.
Our consultancy is based on direct field assessment and practical agricultural experience. We evaluate the operation, identify problems and opportunities, and develop solutions adapted to the farm's crops, resources, infrastructure, team and objectives.
Consultancy can be provided as a one-time assessment, for a specific technical challenge, or through ongoing technical support.
Agricultural Assessment Visit
For existing farms and agricultural operations, an assessment visit is often the first step.
We evaluate the farm's production systems, crops, soil, irrigation, infrastructure, management practices and existing problems to establish a clear picture of the operation.
What You Receive
âś“ Strengths & weaknesses
âś“ Problems identified & possible causes
âś“ Soil, irrigation & crop observations
âś“ Production & management issues
âś“ Opportunities for improvement
âś“ Recommended corrective actions
âś“ Development priorities & next steps
The assessment provides a clear technical basis for corrective work, further consultancy, redesign or ongoing farm management.

Consultancy in Practice
Greenhouse Production Improvement
Crop nutrition, plant training and trellising, irrigation and fertigation, integrated pest and disease management, climate control, pollination, pruning, harvesting, and production optimization to improve plant health, crop quality, yield, and overall production performance.
Orchard Management and Production Improvement
Professional orchard management, including pruning and tree training, irrigation and fertigation, soil fertility and plant nutrition, integrated pest and disease management, pollination, fruit thinning, harvesting, and production planning to improve tree health, fruit quality, yield, and long-term orchard performance.
Replacing Commercial Animal Feed
Development of alternative feed systems to reduce dependence on costly commercial animal feed, including hydroponic fodder, Azolla, mealworm production and farm-grown feed crops. Solutions are evaluated according to the animals' nutritional requirements, available resources, production costs and practicality of implementation.
Workshops, Staff & Farmer Training
Practical agricultural workshops and training programs for farmers, farm staff and agricultural teams, covering crop production, farm management, sustainable and regenerative practices, irrigation, soil fertility, pest and disease management, greenhouse production, composting and other technical agricultural topics.
Training programs combine technical knowledge with hands-on field demonstrations and can be adapted to the experience, needs and production systems of each group.
How Consultancy Works
1. Initial Discussion
We start by understanding the operation, its objectives, existing challenges and the type of support required.
2. Site Assessment
When required, we visit the farm to evaluate crops, soil, irrigation, infrastructure, management practices and overall farm conditions.
3. Recommendations & Action Plan
Our findings are translated into clear recommendations, priorities and practical corrective actions.
4. Implementation Support
We can support the farm team in implementing the recommendations, establishing new systems and applying the required improvements.
5. Ongoing Consultancy
For operations requiring continued technical support, regular visits and follow-up can be provided to monitor progress, address new challenges and continuously improve performance.
