Terraseed® is “advancing crop technology” by offering a
major step-change in food quality, assurance and safety, to the benefit
of consumers, food retailers, suppliers and the environment.
This is achieved by the use of physical barrier systems, replacing
agrochemicals for weed, insect and disease control.
Public anxiety about food safety and health is addressed by Terraseed®
technology through reducing the threat of salmonella and E.coli contamination in fresh salad crops. The
technology also has applications in pharmaceutical crops and herbs.
Terraseed® is proven in organic farming for salad and
vegetable production and makes large-scale organic production viable,
where consumer demand exceeds the ability of leading growers to supply.

The technology also benefits the production of tree
seedlings for amenity and forestry industries, which are under enormous
cost and environmental pressure.
Terraseed® provides a very positive image in an industry where
the technology has often been portrayed as potentially harmful or
controversial. The system replaces agrochemicals and is not dependent on
genetic modification (GM).
Environmental benefits of Terraseed® are substantial, by
conserving soil and moisture and in remediation of degraded or
contaminated land.
