FIELDTIPS

Always ready for new challenges, almo has conquered the market of Spanish paella with Medea.

Medea is the new variety of medium grain, pearled with high amylose content suitable for preparing niche dishes such as Paella.

It has good agronomic characteristics, is resistant to bending and pecky rice and other major rice-seedling diseases.

At least one fungicide treatment is recommended to produce a high quality product, especially in unfavourable rice growing environments.
