The ISC is the largest seed congress held in Southeast Asia, with 300+ delegates attending, representing around 150 companies.
Darren also travelled to Hyderabad and spent time with the Centor India sales team conducting training, planning meetings, and visiting customers. The key focus was to understand the market, customers, the challenges, and opportunities, of which Darren said there were many.

CAN YOU AFFORD NOT TO have a dust off test to improve your seed coat?
Centor Oceania offers a treated seed dust off measurement service, using the Heubach Dustmeter. Seed is placed into a chamber which is rotated while air is being pulled across the tumbling seed.
Measurement of the amount of dust can be taken to accurately determine how well the coating is adhered to the seed surface.
