The results are clear: here's an approach to Botrytis that works
With over 180 hectares of flower fields, Sian Flowers™ is one of Kenya’s leading producers of Roses and Summer Flowers. Like many farms, Botrytis is a constant challenge, especially in high-altitude and rainy locations.
To manage this, Sian worked with FlowerWatch and our CleanPetal™ Approach, starting with Botrytis Fungicide Resistance Analysis.
The early tests have shown positive results:
Resistance levels were different across every farm, even between neighbours.
For every farm in the project, we gained new and actionable insights.
The team could rest several products immediately and focus only on what still works.
With this insight, Sian can now build a spray programme that is structured, data-driven, and cost-effective. It reduces waste, cuts input budgets, keeps customers happy, and supports quality from the field to the market.
