Around 600,000 hectares of UK farmland is under organic management, so it is not surprising that there is an increased requirement for organic game cover and conservation crops.
Kings have always worked closely with both customers and suppliers to ensure we are in a position to offer the best advice and most appropriate products and our dedicated seed processing facility means we are able to offer both organic and un-treated, re-cleaned seed from a wide range of crops.
We are proud to be working with Abacus Organic Associates, a leading organic consultancy business, to collectively develop our knowledge of organic cropping for the benefit of our customers. For more information please visit www.abacusorganic.co.uk.
