On-farm Commercial Variety Trails and Demonstrations

 

• Researchers provide access to parent germplasm and unfinished varieties for interested growers and commercial seed companies, especially alternative producers in this region.

   

• Conduct a demonstration trail:  We want your feedback about variety performance to identify characteristics that fit your farm and market needs.

   

• Host a replicated trail:  Work with Cornell and NOFA-NY to provide quantitative data on promising varieties.
