Terraseed win R&D funding from the Technology Strategy Board's New Approaches to Crop Protection competition for 4 year project focusing on pest and disease control in horticultural crops in collaboration with Stockbridge Technology Centre.
All types of babyleaf lettuce grow well in both Terraseed ClassicTM and Terraseed ExcelTM. The crop is fast growing, high yielding and the seedmat gives outstanding weed control. Disease pressure from Bremia is reduced, especially under Terraseed ExcelTM, due to reduced soil splash and contamination.
Seeds are line sown in rows that are 7.5cm apart at between 400 and 600 /m2.
