FIELDTIPS
The very early maturing cycle of Tea (< 8-10 days
less than Loto) allows maximum late sowing which
is the best way to reduce red rice contamination,
resulting in greater freedom of action and better
production.
Tea is suitable for difficult growing conditions such
as re-sowing in periods when it would be risky for
other varieties, and organic farming with stale
seedbeds.
In the event of very late sowing, it is recommended
to adjust the amount of seeds to make up for
normal tillering deficiencies.Treat the crop with
a fungicide in case of very late sowing.
