Hello, I am Arie Bankers. Living in the town of Mariahout and originally from Deurne. That is in Noord-Brabant. This is the province where I live with my wife and 4 children; 14-12-9-3. The youngest is ours together.

I am joining the team of Rinagro. So that in the South of the Netherlands there will also be more awareness for Rinagro. Growing up on my parents’ agricultural company has brought me into contact with the sector from an early age.

My parents had 2 calf farms and a tree nursery.
My brother took over one company, and I took over the other company together with the tree nursery. In 2014 I stopped calf farming. To then continue with the tree nursery and the sale of dried cow manure and other organic fertilizers. I have been selling organic fertilizers to private individuals for years now, via a webshop.

In addition, from 2016 to 2023 I worked at a company in manure processing for agricultural companies. Here the main issue was manure separation in NL-DE-BE-ESP. Then in 2023-2024 I was active at a company that was active in compost – champost and residual materials.

All in all, it is clear that I have been familiar with soil improvement for years and therefore this company is also a good addition.
