SEED SHOWCASE
Crookham Co. offers update on its hybrid products
We want to share a few of our
products that make our breeders,
developers and our folks in
production and seed conditioning
pretty proud. A good deal of
dedication and expertise went into
these hybrids and some of it comes
from our long-standing relationship
with distributors and growers in our
extensive trialing programs.
Crookham Co. is also in the
XANADU
unique position to be able to access
the strength of a variety from
the beginnings of research to its
performance in the seed production
and conditioning process. This
assures that the grower will have the
best possible growing experience.
Let's start with fresh market sweet
corn and the Nirvana series: Nirvana
and Eden RM3. We knew the series
was going to be a hit with consumers
as the unique " fruit-like " texture
pops when you bite it with a burst
of sweetness. This special bite and
flavor generated customer loyalty
and boosts business for many
merchants. The series is also a
boon to growers for its emergence,
easy picking and packing, holding
capacity and its appealing
appearance in the husk and out.
