"We are excited to collaborate with iGrow Marketplace. Their deep industry knowledge, hands-on experience, and strong network within the hydroponics sector allow us to focus on our core competencies, delivering the solutions producers need to succeed."
SGS Crop Science delivers localized expertise backed by a global network, providing agricultural testing solutions specifically tailored for greenhouse and hydroponic production. We recognize that one size does not fit all, which is why we create bespoke solutions to meet the unique needs of each producer.
Our services include comprehensive water quality analysis to assess nutrient profiles, detect pathogens and contaminants, and verify water suitability for hydroponic systems.

Investing in agricultural testing is critical to safeguarding your operation. Proactive maintenance testing empowers growers to identify risks early, optimize nutrient formulations, refine production methods, and ensure consistent, healthy crop yields. It forms the foundation for preventing small issues from escalating into unmanageable crop failures or pathogen outbreaks.
