What distinguishes gardeners with a Federal Diploma of Higher Education specializing in production from gardening and landscaping?

Gardeners with a Federal Diploma of Higher Education work as managers in plant production or horticultural companies, supervise their team, take on the technical management and actively participate in the work. The two specializations differ in only a few respects. For example, holders of the Federal Diploma of Higher Education in horticulture and landscaping are responsible for carrying out horticultural work and maintenance measures in accordance with the planner's specifications and the maintenance concept, while those in production are responsible for organizing and managing plant production in accordance with customer orders and cultivation plans, as well as for assisting with stock management, sales and ensuring supplies.
