COMPREHENSIVE ORGANIC BOOKLET

Organic farms have been growing at a steady pace and remain at the core of the ‘sustainable farming systems’ which feature prominently in the EU.

Although the current recession has certainly hit sales in this particular sector of the agricultural market there is no doubt that the long term outlook still remains sound. Like all farmers, those running an organic system also need to ensure that they make the correct choice when it comes to selecting the right crops and individual varieties.

Our 20 page booklet on organic seeds provides organic farmers with all the information they need to make the best choice of crop for their individual systems. We cover a whole range of forage crops (including stubble turnips, forage peas and maize) along with an outstanding selection of green manure crops such as phacelia, red clover and vetches.

It is worth noting that this guide also features a ‘nematode reducing mixture’ and a ‘trap crop’ - the latter is designed to help control flea beetle attacks in newly established brassica crops.

If you contact us by e-mail (info@limagrain.co.uk) we can arrange to send you a pdf file of the booklet which is called ‘Crops for Organic Farming Systems’. You will then be able to read it on screen or print individual pages off as appropriate. Please write the words ‘Organic Booklet’ in the subject box of your e-mail as this will enable us to process your enquiry that much quicker.
