Tomato This is the second season Breugem Horticulture, a Dutch tomato grower, has been working with the PATS-C system. In 2024, Sebastiaan Breugem decided to implement this solution to automatically monitor the most important moth pests in his crop across the entire company. The goal? To have a crop protection strategy based on solid facts. One of the pests the team has to deal with is the Tomato looper moth. This pest poses a double threat: in addition to causing damage to the leaves, the caterpillars can directly attack tomatoes, leaving them unsellable. With the decreasing availability of pesticides, the risk of pest outbreaks, and thus economic damage, is increasing. This underscores the importance of acting preventively and strategically. For this reason, Breugem Horticulture is increasingly relying on biological crop protection solutions. For the biologicals to be effective, precise timing of their application is crucial. For instance, bacterial preparations are highly effective against caterpillars, but only if the caterpillars ingest the product at an early stage in this part of their life cycle.    PATS-C proves its value Fortunately, the pest pressure in 2024 turned out to be manageable. Sebastiaan’s observations in the crop were confirmed by the data from the PATS-C dashboard. This helped him to get convinced of the reliability of the system. In 2025, Breugem Horticulture plans to take an even more proactive approach, supported by the insights provided by PATS-C. Information and alerts from the system will serve as the foundation for additional crop inspections, after which the crop protection strategy will be tailored to their needs. In the near future, the company also looks forward to taking advantage of PATS-C's automated predictions, enabling them to respond to pest developments even earlier. Photo: Damage caused by Tomato looper caterpillar  A future oriented family business Based in Bleiswijk, South-Holland, Breugem Horticulture is an innovative family business cultivating tomatoes on six hectares. The company stands out by actively investing in new technologies and sustainable initiatives. Soon, a collective geothermal energy project will be completed to heat the greenhouses, and they are exploring the possibility of capturing CO2 to use in their cultivation.   This also includes the implementation of digital scouting. Alongside using PATS-C to monitor larger pests like moths, the company began using a scouting app in 2024 to detect other pests such as whiteflies. This allows the responsible employee to use their working hours more effectively: less time is spent collecting data, and more time is dedicated to analyzing and optimizing crop protection.   This approach enables Breugem to make timely and better-informed decisions. Additionally, the automated processes simplify labor planning, ensuring workers are deployed where they are most needed. ​ Sebastiaan Breugem

Bell Pepper Cooperation Royal Brinkman, PATS and Agrobío: Biological caterpillar control at Kwekerij het Westland Nursery the Westland will start a large-scale field trial for biological control of caterpillars in bell peppers in January 2024. Tomato looper and Tuta absoluta cause considerable economic damage in bell pepper cultivation. With the disappearance of chemical agents, it is important to make the most of the possibilities of biological control.  The field trial revolves around detection with the PATS-C moth detection system combined with the deployment of the parasitic wasp  Trichogramma achaeae as a biological solution.   The practical trial at Kwekerij het Westland in  the Netherlands compares two departments. One department where signaling by PATS-C is combined with the use of TRICHOcontrol (the parasitic wasp Trichogramma achaeae ) and a second department in combination with traditional crop protection agents. The faster the first signaling is from the tomato looper and the better the distribution of TRICHOcontrol is, the better and faster the caterpillar control will work.   Photo: Paprika in a Westland greenhouse Digital data collection Moths lay eggs from which caterpillars develop, causing leaf and fruit damage. With the elimination of chemical agents, it is important to detect moths earlier. This is possible with the PATS-C automatic detection system. Growers have an earlier view of moths and can take action sooner, before the pest gets out of control. The technology involves the simple mounting of a PATS-C detection system to the greenhouse frame. Detection takes place at night, when the moths are active, and are captured by the camera. By linking to a data recording technique, the grower gets an overview of the presence of moths and the development of pest pressure in the morning, through clear graphs in his dashboard. Recognition at an early stage becomes possible, which is crucial for immediate intervention at the first pest pressure. PATS-C is an automatic detection system for all moth species, including not only Tomato looper ( Chrysodeixis ) and Tuta absoluta but also Duponchelia , Opogona ( banana moth ) and leafrollers. The advantage is that it provides the grower with a faster and more efficient detection system compared to the use of pheromone traps or trap lights. Users also mention the advantage of learning more about the behavior of moths (when they are active) and what effect a crop protection treatment has on the population. Advisors can also monitor pest pressure remotely. Photo: PATS-C in the greenhouse Trichogramma A good biological solution for caterpillar control was not available in the past. With the parasitic wasp  Trichogramma achaeae , it was difficult to achieve good parasitization of moth eggs. Agrobío's new TRICHOcontrol is a product variant whose pupa come out very quickly and dosed. Now this is 3-14 days, where it used to be 10-14 days. A parasitization rate of almost 100% is realized. Combined with PATS-C signaling of the very first moth and starting immediately with Trichogramma , expectations for this trial are high . Kwekerij Het Westland in Naaldwijk has gained experience with PATS-C since May 2023. Chris Bos: "With PATS-C we signaled very well the presence of tomato loopers, while at that time I found no adults in the traps. These insights help me respond even faster and more adequately to pest pressure. We have already experimented a bit with TRICHOcontrol last season and we have seen that Trichogramma also gives good parasitization in higher growing crops like bell pepper, but at the start the pest pressure was already too high. Next season we will therefore start this larger practical trial from the start of the new crop".

Bell Pepper At Vink Sion, a pepper grower in Friesland, a combination of biological control and automated monitoring is yielding promising results against one of the most persistent greenhouse pests: the Tomato looper ( Chrysodeixis chalcites ). Working closely with retailer programs like Bakker Barendrecht and Albert Heijn’s Beter voor Natuur & Boer, the company has embraced sustainable practices that support biodiversity and reduced chemical use.   To reinforce that mission, Vink Sion has been trialing a dual strategy: releasing Trichogramma wasps to parasitize moth eggs and deploying PATS-C to track moth activity in real time. The goal is to act earlier, more precisely, and with more confidence. Biological control with backup The first step in the approach is releasing Trichogramma brassicae along the crop edges and under vulnerable conditions, particularly in greenhouses with high pest pressure. This year, two out of three greenhouse blocks were treated preventively. “We used to hang sticky traps and hope for the best,” recalls crop manager Albert van der Ziel . “Now, we release the Trichogramma first, and the PATS-C system confirms that it’s working.” In 2024, the difference became crystal clear. From the PATS-C data, the team could clearly see fewer Tomato loopers in the blocks where Trichogramma had been applied compared to the untreated control. “That confirmation is worth a lot ,” says Albert. “You can see the data backing up your strategy. That builds trust.”   Photo: Jaap Vink with Bell Pepers A shift in scouting and decision-making With PATS-C monitoring overnight flights, the team no longer has to rely on just sticky traps or daytime scouting. “We used to miss a lot. Now, if we don’t see activity in the data, we know we don’t need to scout intensively in that block. That’s new for us, and it really helps,” says Albert. Even other moth species like Duponchelia are now detected in the system, helping the team target different beneficials accordingly. “PATS-C can tell the difference between moth species based on size and shape. That tells us what kind of biologicals we might need to release.” Photo: Cotesia as a natural enemy of the Tomato looper in sweet pepper From demo to daily use Vink Sion first encountered PATS-C during a demo and decided to give it a chance. Owner Jaap Vink had seen the system but wasn’t fully convinced until Albert pushed to install it and test its value. “At first, we didn’t know exactly what we were seeing,” says Albert. “But after just one season, we realized the value. More and more, we’ve come to trust the system.” Now, the grower team is working toward expanding their use of both PATS-C and Trichogramma . Next up: linking the data more closely to treatment schedules and scaling the approach to other greenhouses. Photo: PATS-C in the greenhouse Sustainable progress, supported by data The Tomato looper remains a stubborn pest in many crops. But with tools like PATS-C, growers like Vink Sion are seeing that automated data and biological solutions don’t just coexist, they amplify each other. “It’s not just about reacting anymore. We see things earlier and do less,” Albert says. “And when you see that in the numbers, it gives you the confidence to keep going.” Albert van der Zei, Crop Manager Vink Sion Want the full story on Vink Sion’s journey with PATS-C?

Bell Pepper Marvin Koot, a technical crop protection specialist at Biobest Netherlands, has been consulting Jansen Paprika for years. Located in Andijk in The Netherlands, Jansen Paprika cultivates an impressive 25 hectares of red and yellow bell peppers. The company is a member of Growers United and is Planet Proof certified.   Together with Ron Jansen, co-owner of Jansen Paprika, Marvin has taken on the challenge of using as little chemical crop protection as possible in the 2023 season. And successfully so. This achievement was partly thanks to the use of the PATS-C solution. The system was deployed in the fight against the Tomato looper ( Chrysodeixis chalcites ), a well-known pest in bell pepper. The caterpillars of this moth can quickly and extensively damage the crop. PATS-C recognizes and counts different moth species, keeping a precise track of activity and pest development. This allows for immediate response to impending infestations.   Photo: PATS-C at Jansen Paprika BV Ron was very interested in PATS’s solutions at the beginning of 2023, particularly PATS-C. In the years before, the company regularly ran into problems with the Turkish moth. Sometimes this led to significant damage, caused by the caterpillars. At the start of last season, he installed this system in a 6-hectare section. Ron Jansen’s experiences are very positive: “At this location, we were able to control the caterpillars completely biologically. So with fewer resources compared to previous years and without any significant crop damage.” Thanks to the monitoring system, Ron was able to choose the right moments throughout the season to apply Bt ( Bacillus thuringiensis ), a biological agent against caterpillars. Graph: The PATS-C dashboard shows the flight activity of the Turkish moth Based on the graph in the PATS-C dashboard, three periods could be observed when the activity of adult moths increased: mid-June, mid-July, and mid-August. At those times, adult moths flew into the greenhouse from outside. Shortly after these surges of pest activity were detected, a Bt treatment was applied. Because of this precise timing, the caterpillars came into direct contact with the product right after the egg stage and were unable to develop into moths. As a result, crop feeding damage was minimal, and new generations of the pest were cut off early. Photo: The caterpillar of the Tomato looper can cause significant damage in bell peppers. For the coming season, Ron and Marvin again aim to keep the caterpillars under control without the use of chemical pesticides. With the help of the PATS-C system, that will once again be a piece of cake. And it’s not only the Turkish moth that is being monitored, other moth species don’t escape the ‘eyes’ of PATS-C either. For example, the Duponchelia moth, which at high populations can also pose a problem in bell pepper cultivation.

Roses At rose grower Nini, part of Herburg in Naivasha, Kenya the PATS-C system is being used to monitor False Codling Moth (FCM). Two greenhouses at the 60-hectare farm are now equipped with the automated cameras as part of a project to improve early detection.   “For us as growers, the moth was never a big issue,” explains Philippe Veys of Nini. “ There was hardly any visible damage, so it never received much attention until the EU tightened its regulations. Now the risks of shipment interceptions and even market closures have increased considerably… So, understanding and controlling the moth starts with good monitoring.”   Photo: The team of Nini and PATS together in the greenhouse Early Results The first results are promising. “We’ve just started, but we can already see it works. We see what we see in person reflected in the system's output. The next step is determining whether the system can also predict pressure increases, allowing for earlier intervention.” Looking Ahead Scaling remains the big question, but the potential is clear. “If it works for FCM, maybe it can work for other pests or diseases too, whether with fixed cameras or maybe drones. That's still to be seen. But we're convinced certain applications will definitely succeed.” Philippe Veys Photo: PATS-C with roses Want the full story on Nini’s journey with PATS-C?

Propogation At Redwing Limited in Kenya, cultivating delicate flowers like lisianthus and geraniums for propagation comes with its set of challenges, notably the management of nocturnal insect pests. To address this, the company has integrated PATS-C, an advanced automated monitoring system, into their pest management strategy. Delivered by Real IPM, member of the Biobest Group, a renowned distributor of pest control solutions and high-tech monitoring systems, PATS-C has been operational at Redwing for the past six months.​   Simon Sayer , Company Director at Redwing, shares his experience: "The system is very simple to install. The technology to track where insects are in the greenhouse and the time of day they are most active is an amazing advance in crop monitoring. Plus, the ability to visualize the immediate effect of intervention and chart this historically enables growers to be far more precise with chemical use and far more confident with biological controls."​   Photo: Installation of PATS-C at Redwing in Kenya PATS-C functions by continuously scanning the greenhouse environment, detecting and tracking pest insect populations. This real-time data is then presented through an intuitive dashboard, allowing growers to monitor insect activity patterns and make informed decisions promptly. The system's precision not only aids in timely interventions but also supports the reduction of chemical inputs, promoting a more sustainable approach to pest management. Building upon the capabilities of PATS-C, the introduction of the PATS-Kalendar further enhances the grower's toolkit. This digital logbook allows for the meticulous recording of all pest control actions, linking them directly to observed pest pressures. By documenting interventions and their outcomes, growers can evaluate the effectiveness of their strategies, refine their approaches, and plan future actions with greater confidence. The synergy between PATS-C's real-time monitoring and PATS-Kalendar's detailed record-keeping empowers growers to transition from reactive to proactive pest management.​ Photo: Visible effect after crop protection: moth activity dropped by 50% in the following generation. The collaboration between Redwing, PATS, and Real IPM exemplifies the potential of integrating advanced technology into traditional agricultural practices. By embracing such innovations, growers can achieve more precise, efficient, and sustainable crop protection, ensuring both the health of their crops and the longevity of their farming practices.​

Gerbera At Flower Harmony, everything revolves around growing beautiful gerberas in a sustainable way. What started as three independent growers within Colours of Nature grew into one collective in January 2024. By joining forces, they’ve been able to specialize more, scale up reliably, and build a company culture focused on collaboration, respect, and continuous learning. Sustainability runs through everything they do, from energy use to employee wellbeing and that mindset extends to pest management too. In February 2021, Flower Harmony started working with PATS-C, looking for a smarter, more precise way to monitor moth activity without disrupting biological control. In gerbera, balancing the biological eco-system is crucial to achieve a high quality product year round.   From first tests to daily use The first systems were installed at two Maasdijk locations back in 2021. From the start, the growers were curious to see how the technology would fit into their day-to-day work. Those early experiences quickly proved their value: PATS-C spotted moth activity before it showed up in traditional traps, giving the team more time to act and prevent potential damage.   Photo: Twan Breugem surrounded by gerberas What began as an experiment soon became part of their daily routine. Today, Flower Harmony runs PATS-C across their four greenhouses, keeping an eye out at nine hectares of gerbera production. The insights the system continuously provides now plays an important role in their integrated pest management (IPM) strategy.  "The predictions from PATS are incredibly valuable. Their early warning for a caterpillar wave allowed us to intervene biologically at exactly the right moment, stopping the pest population before it could develop. It’s great to have this level of foresight, it helps us plan materials and labor with confidence." Twan Breugem, Director Turning data into confidence Real-time insights have changed the way the team approaches pest control. When PATS-C detects flight activity, they can adjust their biological treatments quickly and with confidence. And when the data shows calm nights, they know their current strategy is working, saving time and effort in scouting. The result is a more balanced growing environment, where decisions are driven by facts instead of assumptions. A shift that brings back control to the grower, and that enhances biological control with the right technology. A shared goal: growing sustainably The collaboration between Flower Harmony and PATS is built on the values of innovation, sustainability, and collaboration to move the industry forward. By combining automated monitoring with biological control, Flower Harmony can keep pesticide usage to a minimum, and only as a last resort, while maintaining a healthy crop and ecosystem. Photo: PATS-C system in the greenhouse in Maasdijk Looking ahead The partnership continues to evolve. Together, Flower Harmony and PATS are exploring new ways to make insect data even more useful. A first step is the roll-out of PATS-Vinder, earlier this season. The team now knows when adult moths appear, but even better, they now know when the tiniest caterpillars are hatching. A perfect tool when you need to plan your intervention and the manpower for execution.    For Flower Harmony, technology like PATS-C is not only a tool. It helps the team to stay lean, learn daily and improve strategies to stay on top of pests. Twan Breugem, Director

Gerbera The company has used the PATS-C solution since its first version in 2020. Since 2024, both greenhouses on the 7-hectare company have been fully covered with netting, which effectively prevents the influx of new adult moths. However, monitoring the internal moth population remains crucial. Therefore, from 2025, Oudijk will monitor the entire company with a total of eight PATS-C cameras.   Dirk-Jan Oudijk explains: "The Tomato looper is a complex and highly damaging pest. Once they are inside, it is extremely difficult to get rid of them again. It requires attention constantly throughout the season and significantly disrupts biological pest control. That’s why we now need to be even more alert: knowing whether the pest is completely eradicated and being able to act immediately if a new moth does manage to sneak in."   Tomato Looper larva In recent years, the company has experienced how quickly a Tomato looper population can escalate. Dirk-Jan explains how PATS-C data provided insight into this: "Last year, we saw on the PATS-C dashboard how the generations developed in rapidly increasing waves. Not long after, we saw the consequences in the crop. That was the moment for me to fully commit to PATS-C. An extra pair of eyes and better information are simply indispensable." PATS-C installation at Oudijk Gerbera The next step is that the system directly warns both Dirk-Jan and Erik Mooij, the company’s dedicated crop protection advisor, when the pest is detected. In addition, PATS-C is also going to serve as a prediction tool and predict when the first larvae are expected. With these innovations, Dirk-Jan and Erik can manage the Tomato looper even more effectively and proactively anticipate new threats.

Gerbera With 12 hectares across four greenhouses and an annual output of 95 million gerberas, LG Flowers stands among the top gerbera producers in the Netherlands. Next to the company’s strong growth in recent years, new challenges continue to emerge. This is especially clear in how quickly the crop protection landscape is evolving. Pests like the Tomato looper moth ( Chrysodeixis chalcites ) and European pepper moth ( Duponchelia fovealis ) have a major impact on gerbera cultivation. Not just on the crop itself, but also on the biological balance that LG Flowers strives to maintain.   “We do everything we can to stay ahead of pests,” says Martin de Bruijn , Head of Cultivation at LG Flowers. “As soon as moths enter, it can trigger a domino effect. They undermine natural predators, knocking the whole system off balance. Then you’re months behind”. LG Flowers has been working with the PATS-C solution since 2021. Four years later, PATS-C monitoring has been rolled out across the entire company. In addition, a significant part of the greenhouses has been screened with insect netting preventively, wherever technically possible. “Monitoring the internal population remains essential,” says Martin. “PATS-C gives us 24/7 insight, and most importantly: peace of mind. We know where we stand.” Martin de Bruijn, Head of Cultivation at LG Flowers, next to one of the PATS-C cameras. This continuous stream of data is also helpful for Wouter Mooij, crop protection advisor: “Growers often have a fixed window for performing a treatment. Several times a year, we see a sharp change in moth activity within three days. If there’s an increase midweek and there's a chance to spray over the weekend, you can adjust and scale up your strategy before the larvae reach the feeding stage.” Martin continues: “PATS-C detects the Τomato looper at a very early stage, often even before any visible damage appears. Past experience shows that such a spike in moth activity is quickly followed by crop damage. By recognizing this pattern, we can make targeted biological interventions against the first larvae and prevent further infestation.” The PATS-C camera closely monitors moth activity day and night. Keeping track of actions is becoming increasingly important. Interventions are immediately logged in PATS-Kalendar, allowing crop experts and advisors to track what was done and when. The next step is to predict risks and automatically advise the right intervention moment. ​ “We’re fully committed to digitization, prevention, and biological control,” Martin says. “ It’s about being able to act at the very first sign of pressure, so we can maintain a balance in the greenhouse. Think of banker plants to keep natural enemies at stable levels, and of technology that helps us stay alert. By combining these tools, we create a system that doesn’t react after the fact but instead prevents things from getting out of hand. At the same time, we keep looking for ways to make our cultivation system even smarter, with new technologies that enable us to act faster and more precisely. That’s how we keep raising the bar.”

Orchids At Bac Orchids, innovation and tradition come together in the cultivation of Cymbidium. In this interview, Dico Bac, co-owner of Bac Orchids, shares how their family nursery is tackling one of the toughest challenges in orchid production: the opogona moth   After years of striving to grow organically, without chemical pesticides, the nursery faced significant losses, with up to 25% of crops damaged by pest infestations. Today, with the help of PATS-C, they have reduced that damage dramatically, achieving greater control while staying true to their sustainable approach. Video: Interview with Dico Bac  ”Before, we could only guess with UV light traps. Now, thanks to PATS-C, we can actually see the cycles of new generations, monitor them at night, and adapt our strategy with precision. It’s a real added value for us.” Through real-time monitoring and detailed insights, Bac Orchids can now anticipate infestations, optimize biological interventions like nematodes, and move closer to their vision of a fully sustainable, resilient orchid crop. Through real-time monitoring and detailed insights, Bac Orchids can now anticipate infestations, optimize biological interventions like nematodes, and move closer to their vision of a fully sustainable, resilient orchid crop. “Doing it the biological way is more effort, but I like the challenge.
