“The Pendred Tru-fog Crop Hydration system has revolutionised our farming operation”
“We are now selling baby leaf product at up to 11 days after harvest without any Quality issues”
“If we can, we prefer to hold product for one or two days in our Tru-fog conditioning cold store as product looks better after two days in storage than it does fresh off the field”
“We are consistently recording a 10% increase in product sent to processors (same at our other satellite farm) since we installed the Pendred Tru-fog system”
“This season we have had absolutely no product wasted due to quality issues”
“Much greater flexibility and reduced cost in cropping now that we can plan a week ahead rather than reacting to orders received that day. We call this ‘strategic cropping’, since the introduction of the Pendred Tru-fog system, we cut in advance rather than on the morning of despatch”
“The despatch weight of product is exactly matched to the order weight, as stabilised product comes directly from the cold room, not the field”
“Health and Safety is vastly improved as a result of planned work schedule”
“Costs are reduced as we no longer have to re-visit the field to make up order weight”
“We can now cut and store the leaf at the optimum or correct size, preventing the leaf growing oversize in the field and being wasted”
“There is now a potential to grow and store surplus crop before the latter end of the season when the yields are poor and danger of frost damage is imminent”
“Over production caused by crops bolting can now be held in store and sold rather than being wasted”
“Bunched carrots look better than they did off the field”
“Beetroot has held for months with no loss of quality or weight”
“Broccoli can be held in perfect condition for 5 weeks or more”
“We won’t be able to manage with out it!”
“Broccoli lost 2% weight in three weeks and was in perfect condition, the control sample lost 22% and was not in saleable condition”
“For such a simple concept the results are amazing”
“If bad weather is on its way we can cut and store the product before it is ruined on the fields”
