Peat and sawdust are liberally applied to our nursery beds every year. Professionals then ensure that this organic material is meticulously and site-specifically worked in around the base of the rootstocks, using specially designed equipment. This triggers the start of rooting and ensures the development of vigorous rootstocks with a strong root system. We have the capacity to irrigate both the beds and entire fields in the nursery during growing season. The nursery beds are checked regularly throughout the growing season and tested by an inspector from Naktuinbouw.<\/p>\n
