Profile

MARCO is an early maturing tetraploid variety. Its fast establishment and ripening contributes to flexibility in drilling time. MARCO is a highly palatable variety due to a leaf to root ratio of 60:40. The turnip’s long root system penetrates the soil working against compaction. Thus, it creates fine soil structure and a favourable pore system.
