Look back at the Open Day in the German horticultural trial station

Over the past few weeks, the Open Days have once again taken place at the Teaching and Research Institutes for Horticulture. Interesting presentations shed light on various areas of our industry, such as the effectiveness of plant strengthening agents. In Veitshöchheim, Mr. Köckert called for the old favourites to be thrown out of the product ranges - a piece of advice that was certainly taken on board with the wealth of information on the new varieties that were presented at all the locations and could be seen on the fantastic test fields.

The test fields are also open at the LVGs over the summer and help in the search for the "egg-laying woolly milk variety", as Mr. Koch so charmingly put it in Heidelberg.

Many thanks to Dresden, Erfurt, Heidelberg and Veitshöchheim!
