We produce plates with the 3 sub-samples (original/mixed, better covered, less covered).

HOW IT IS USED

  • We explain the growers that a bad seed treatment will produce heterogeneous crops: part of the plants are super-protected (and maybe show phytotox effects), part of the plants are not protected
