Siegers Seed Company is known for the extensive trials they
conduct on seed before they make it available to any of their
growers. They continually work with breeders/producers to
develop products that surpass what the market requests.
Currently they have the Vilmorin AGORA and RICARDO hybrid radish
in trials. “We pick varieties that ensure growers larger
diameter radishes that are less likely to split, pith, or bleed,
“ said Al Zoet, “We have found the Vilmorin radishes have
greater yield, uniformity, better recovery after harvest and
quality pack-out’.
Siegers Seed Company puts the newest seed varieties through
rigorous testing under many different environmental conditions.
These Vilmorin trials have show to produce a better product
model than the accepted standard. “These are the results we look
for when determining what seed to bring to our growers,” added
Roy Pearman, Director of Sales and Marketing for Siegers Seed
Company. Growers who purchase their commercial vegetable seed
from Siegers have the benefit of knowledge, expert advice, years
of experience and complete programs based on extensive trials
that provide them with solutions, programs, and proper
expectations.
