The International Spinach Open Day at the end of September took place at the Seminis demonstration site at Wageningen. This provided a fantastic platform showcasing the current commercial portfolio alongside future pipeline varieties.

Agility Agriculture look forward to seeing customers old and new at this year’s British Carrot Growers’ Association (BCGA) field trials day, where we will be exhibiting the latest carrot varieties in the Seminis portfolio.

A press release was made on 1^st May 2017 by the International Bremia Evaluation Board for the EU (IBEB-EU) stating that it “….has evaluated all Bremia races found in 2016 and earlier. Once again, many outbreaks of Bremia were caused by Bremia races with only local importance. However, one race spread in most European countries and IBEB-EU decided to denominate this isolate as the new race BI: 33EU. The Board emphasizes the importance of chemical control and hygiene measures in addition to the use of resistant varieties to prevent the development of new races.”

We were delighted to attend the British Carrots Field Trials day on Thursday 6^th October, hosted by Hobson Farming at Scampston Estate.
