MY ULTIMATE GOAL IS<br />

TO PROVIDE THE VITRO<br />

PLUS PRODUCTION<br />

DEPARTMENTS WITH<br />

VALUABLE ADVICE<br />

TOGETHER WE<br />

OPTIMISE THE<br />

OPERATIONS<br />

IN THE GREEN-<br />

HOUSE!<br />

Rachel Bakker<br />

”As the supervisor of the tissue culture quality-control<br />

team, I have a significant responsibility in ensuring<br />

product quality and examining the final product to<br />

make sure it meets our standards.<br />

One key aspect of my work is my involvement in<br />

the greenhouse, where I spend half my time on<br />

acquiring essential practical experience in the early<br />

stages of tissue culture cultivation. I work closely on<br />

this with Marinus, who is responsible for hardening<br />

off our tissue culture plants in the greenhouse in<br />

Zierikzee. Together, we optimise the operations in the<br />

greenhouse, to improve understanding into the ideal<br />

conditions for hardening off, and the desired quality<br />

improvements of the input material.<br />

This hands-on experience puts me in a better position<br />

to understand the next steps in the production process,<br />

and identify potential improvements. My ultimate<br />

goal is to provide the Vitro Plus production departments<br />

with valuable advice on how to refine product quality.<br />

I’m constantly working on my personal development,<br />

both through practical experience in the greenhouse<br />

and theoretical studies. Thanks to this dedication, my<br />

team and I are able to work together on maintaining<br />

and improving the highest quality standards. This<br />

new challenge really vitalizes me and gives me an<br />

incredible amount of satisfaction in my daily work.”<br />
