AMIGO Nematode resistant Oil radish Oil radish
Advantages
The new generation of biological nematode control
Name addition
Nematode resistant Oil radish
- Beet Cyst Nematode control at the highest level, over 90% reduction of Heterodera schachtii (resistance level 1)
- AMIGO promotes the hatching of the Beet Cyst Nematodes and reduces actively their population to a level under the damage threshold
- Improved initial development with fast soil coverage for excellent tilth formation and effective weed suppression
- Intensive root system binds nutrients and protects them against displacement into deeper soil layers
- Plenty of organic matter promotes the humus balance and activates the soil life
Included in blends: viterra® RÜBE
