Envu, Nufarm Now Offering Early Order Programs for Greenhouse Growers

Late summer is the time when crop protection product suppliers begin offering early order programs (EOPs) to greenhouse growers. The 2026 Envu® Ornamentals EOP, for example, is now available for growers, offering an opportunity to plan ahead for the coming season while maximizing savings across an expanded portfolio. Available Sept. 1 through Dec. 4, 2026, the Ornamentals EOP is designed to help growers move from reactive purchasing to proactive planning.

“The Ornamentals EOP gives growers an opportunity to plan proactively, simplify purchasing, and protect their bottom line,” says Pete Farno, Ornamental Business Director, Envu Ornamentals. “Most of all, it enables growers to build the right program for the season ahead while getting more value from the solutions they already know and trust.”

By building their programs before pressures appear, growers can get ahead of next season with preventative products that manage resistance, all while taking advantage of competitive savings. Through the program, growers get access to four different ways to stack savings.

In addition to program savings, all agency purchases made on Early Order Programs receive payment terms of June 4, 2027, allowing growers to secure products and savings now while managing cash flow into the next production season.

“We’ve been utilizing the Ornamentals EOP program for years,” says Travis Hammonds from Altman Plants. “It [EOP] really provides us with a level of flexibility and to be able to control costs, which I think in this day and age, with the margin, is huge.”

Envu is emphasizing foundational products such as Marengo® herbicide and Kontos® insecticide as a preventative approach to weeds and key insects. These products provide growers with solutions to build an integrated rotational program into their plans for the coming season.

For Dan Waterhouse at Neuhouse Farms, access to a broad range of solutions has been a key part of the program’s value. He says they started using the Envu Ornamentals EOP due to its diverse portfolio of products to choose from.

Envu is also providing resources to simplify planning and purchase decisions, including an EOP calculator, program flyers and agronomic guides with expert recommendations for plant production. Growers can use these resources to evaluate potential savings, plan product rotations and build programs around the needs of high-value crops such as mums, roses and poinsettias.

Nufarm is also offering new products, enhanced product rebates, and more volume bonus rebates through its EOP.

“It’s that time of year again when EOP programs launch, giving channel partners and growers the opportunity to take advantage of some of the best savings available all year. In addition to significant cost-saving opportunities, EOP season is the perfect time to introduce new solutions that can strengthen rotational programs and support best-in-class plant protection practices,” says Heidi Warner, Greenhouse and Nursery Segment Manager at Nufarm.

“New products include OpteraPro® Insecticide, Simpell® Insecticide, and ChampION® Fungicide/Bactericide. With savings available on up to 28 individual products, 9 new volume bonus rebates bringing the total up to 15 maximum rebate opportunities, herbicide offers, a new low everyday price on Safari®, there has never been a better time to evaluate ways to maximize savings and enhance crop protection programs.”

Two New Insecticides Added to Nufarm Edge Rewards

Simpell has potent and broad activity against many different types of foliar pests, caterpillars, thrips, mites, beetles, flies and fleas. The active ingredient in Simpell, spinosad, is biologically derived and soft on beneficial insects. Its unique mode of action is strongest against some pests that are traditionally the hardest to control and prone to resistance.

For commercial ornamental nurseries and greenhouses, OpteraPro Insecticide provides long-lasting protection against a wide range of insect pests, including foliar pests like aphids, clearwing and peachtree borers, lace bugs, leaf-feeding caterpillars, sawfly larvae, adult Japanese beetles, and soil-dwelling white grubs.
