Haygrove Customer Case Study at Clock House Farm, UK

Clock House Farm is one of the largest UK berry producers, Nick Deppe Production Director, talks through how they are using Haygrove products to achieve their efficiency targets. Clock House Farm were one of the pioneers of growing strawberries in substrate on a commercial field-scale with the first substrate systems being purchased in 1998. By 2006 they had completely converted their production to be out of the soil. The specifcation is 6 lines of Haygrove tabletops in each 9m wide Ventura polytunnel, which are split by a central alleyway where machinery can drive. By having an even split of 3 rows either side, the crop can be sprayed in one-pass in either direction, without having to adjust the sprayer settings. The tabletop strawberries are constructed at 1.1m height, a comfortable height for workers to pick well-presented fruit meaning high picking speeds are achieved. Haygrove’s strong HSO steel has given Clock House the confidence in the strength and stability of the polytunnel to increase the bay width to 9m with 6 rows of substrate gutters per tunnel, whereas previously they worked on a 4-row system in a 6.5m wide tunnel.
