Spinach
Tozer seeds have been market leaders in spinach for over 15 years. Through our collaboration with Pop Vriend Zaden B.V. we are able to offer a comprehensive range of cultivars for year round production in the UK. The Pop Vriend breeders continue to develop new varieties offering resistance to new races of downy mildew, Peronospora farinose (Pfs) as they arise. Our spinach varieties are well adapted to UK conditions and have been bred for high yield, disease resistance, upright habit, enhanced processing ability and superior bolting tolerance.
Today's diverse market requirements demand adaptability and our spinach cultivars are well suited to baby, teen, bunching and processing production.
We are also able to offer specialist oriental cultivars bred in Europe for European conditions. For further information and details of future developments please ask your local representative.
