Nematode resistant White mustard
VERDI
Nematode control on a new level
Benefits:
- Tested in France and listed to resistance class H1 (highest reduction)
- Very low tendency to flower allows early sowing without the risk of maturity
- Fast initial development ensures good weed suppression and makes VERDI particularly compatible to late-sowing
- The long vegetative growth contributes significantly to the sustainable control of Beet Cyst Nematodes
- Because of safe freezing off particularly suitable for mulch sowing methods of the following crop
- Both the green standing crop as well as the frozen mulch cover after winter protect the soil from wind and water erosion
- Excellent for agricultural blends
