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 />
