Global leader in horticulture innovation

South Holland is home to one of the most advanced agriculture ecosystems in the world. The region combines centuries of agricultural expertise with cutting-edge innovation in greenhouse horticulture, biotechnology and robotics.

At the heart of the sector is Westland, a global hub for greenhouse cultivation where growers, technology companies and researchers work together to produce flowers more efficiently and sustainably. The region's greenhouses increasingly use AI, sensors, automation and robotics to optimise crop production while reducing energy, water and chemical use.

This blend of horticulture and technology creates exciting opportunities for engineers, data specialists, researchers, sustainability professionals and food innovators from around the world.

Where food meets technological innovation

South Holland is a centre for next-generation food production. At innovation hubs such as Biotech Campus Delft and Planet B.io, startups, researchers and established companies develop solutions ranging from fermentation technologies to alternative proteins and cellular agriculture.

At the same time, the region's strong robotics and mechatronics ecosystem is helping transform the sector. Companies are developing autonomous systems for planting, harvesting and crop monitoring, while precision agriculture technologies help growers increase yields and use resources more efficiently.

In this space, breakthroughs move quickly from research to real-world applications that address food security and sustainability challenges.
