Dutch plant nutrition and substrate solutions provider, CANNA has launched CANNA AGRI Solutions, a new commercial category to facilitate functioning of large scale cultivation units with cost-efficient inputs, clean formulations and technical guidance. The new AGRI Soultions program will integrate CANNA’s commercial offerings, including bulk liquid nutrients, substrates and additives with licensed producears and controlled environment agriculture operations (CEA).
The program will connects producers with CANNA’s technical support resources, including facility advising, application guidance, crop insights and QA assistance for operations working toward medical, Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) and Good Agricultural and Collection Practices (GACP) compliance. Under this initiative, producers will gain access to bulk formats such as 200L drums and 1000L totes, substrate-specific base fertilizers and customized service options intended to streamline operations.
It will also introduce soluble nutrient formulas namely CANNA Universal Dry and CANNA Coco Dry to mark company’s first venture into soluble products. These formulations will serve as a qualitative alternative for facilities that use salts, maintaining company’s standards for clean inputs, consistent composition and ease of use. The new products made their formal debut at MJBizCon in Las Vegas, although they are not yet available for sale.
Supporting Different Cultivation Environments
According to the company, CANNA AGRI Solutions is intended to support cost-efficient production across indoor, greenhouse, and automated vertical farming environments.
The launch is designed to serve not only cultivation teams but also the wider decision-making units within commercial facilities, including finance and quality assurance. Through AGRI Solutions, the firm aims to offer predictable input standards, transparent documentation, and technical support aligned with the operational requirements of large-scale cultivation operations.

CANNA’s plant cultivation solutions include base nutrients, additives, and substrates. The company states that it provides high-quality, environmentally friendly products customized for different growing mediums. Its network spans more than 30 countries, offering solutions intended to support clean, simple, and sustainable cultivation.
CANNA says its nutrients can be used with various light sources, including LEDs, HPS lamps, and natural sunlight. The company notes that although lighting technologies have changed, the basic nutritional requirements of plants have not. It adds that its formulations have been developed over several decades to work consistently across different growing conditions.
Canna Providing Consistency and Control
Large scale cultivation facilities are accelerating adoption of CEA to combat climate volatility, with global CEA acreage growing at 8-12% annually across North America and Europe according to sector benchmarks. These operations prioritise inputs that deliver consistent performance at scale, including uniform nutrient solubility, predictable crop responses, and compatibility with automation.
As energy and water pressures intensify, large-scale facilities increasingly rely on substrate-specific feeding strategies and precision fertigation to reduce waste and stabilize yields. This shift reflects a broader move toward industrialized cultivation models built on standardized inputs and data-driven environmental control. With extreme weather disrupting field conditions and heightening resource constraints, growers are also turning to inputs and technologies that provide greater consistency and operational reliability.
Global smart agriculture markets are projected to grow steadily through 2034, with major research firms forecasting compound annual growth rates (CAGR) of roughly 9-14 % as farms continue to adopt data-driven tools, CEA systems, and more integrated input solutions.
Against this backdrop, CANNA’s expansion with its new AGRI Solutions line, including dry soluble nutrient products introduced at MJBizCon and expected to reach the market in 2026 reflects a wider industry shift toward scalable, substrate-specific solutions designed to support reliable production in both greenhouse and indoor environments. The move aligns with demand for inputs that can maintain performance despite climate stressors while fitting into more automated, technology enabled cultivation systems.
