Nematode resistant

Tested in France and listed to resistance class H1 (highest reduction)
Very low tendency to flower allows early sowing without the risk of maturity
Fast initial development ensures good weed suppression and makes VERDI particularly compatible to late-sowing
The long vegetative growth contributes significantly to the sustainable control of Beet Cyst Nematodes
Because of safe freezing off particularly suitable for mulch sowing methods of the following crop
Both the green standing crop as well as the frozen mulch cover after winter protect the soil from wind and water erosion
Excellent for agricultural blends
