Learning Hub
Spray applications, one of the many challenge’s growers of ornamental crops face. In order to try and share our knowledge to help you make every flower count, we have set up our Learning Hub. This began with our crop coverage, water volumes and adjuvant webinars held throughout August and these are now available below for you to watch either here, or on our YouTube channel. Each webinar is roughly an hour in length and includes the Q&A session at the end of the presentations.
