Durability in the Dutch flower branch

Russian gas supplies via Poland to Germany remain suspended and geopolitical tensions over Ukraine continue to run high. President Vladimir Putin has assembled a large force near the Ukrainian border and the United States is reckoning with a Russian invasion.

As a result, gas prices are rising to record highs. Japanese Europe correspondent Yasuko Takeda from the public channel NHK makes a report about the Dutch flower industry to find out how they are coping with the high gas prices. Growing flowers and plants requires a lot of gas and the companies that have taken energy-saving measures are suffering much less economically. How is the Dutch flower industry going to survive?

For this production Featurez gave advice, did the research, set up, planning of the filming, booked a rental car, did the driving and accompanied the filming.
