Seeds

A farmer’s greatest triumph in their farming journey is in good soil preparation, sowing good quality seeds, managing costs and reaping a bountiful harvest. We therefore source and select our seeds for both green house and open field production from renowned, leading and globally respected seed producers and breeders who meet all international seed testing standards.
Our Hybrid and open pollinated seeds portfolio is carefully chosen, tried and tested locally to suit the African soil and growing conditions. Additionally, our professional team of Agronomists advise farmers on the best seed varieties suitable for their regions. 
In recent years, drought has become a major challenge for African farmers who are dependent on rain fed agriculture. To mitigate this, we supply hybrid vegetable and fodder seeds that are drought tolerant.
Through our focused product development approach, we are continuously looking for, and testing new varieties to solve emerging diseases that farmers are finding hard to combat. Our seeds have added value and have benefited small and medium scale farmers, export farmers as well as Non- Governmental organizations (NGO’s) and Community Based Organisations (CBO’s) who are working with communities towards sustainable farming.

Onions

Our Onion Russet F1 ensures that the output is higher than per given area. This variety is well suited for the cooler regions and has very early maturing making it advantageous for rain fed production. The bulb size is medium to large, very pungent with a deep red color and with a potential output of 30 Tonnes per acre. 
Most onion growing areas face challenges of Onion Pink Root disease from continuous onion production with limited crop rotation. Russet F1 has proved resistance to Pink Root and the variety can be grown both under irrigation and in rain fed areas.

Maturing in only 75 days after transplanting, Tycoon has good head weight (4-5kgs), excellent field holding capacity and has very uniform heads hence, a one off harvest. Its compact head with enough cover leaves makes it suitable for long distance transportation.
