The science behind 4salt® 

The 4salt® concept is a result of continuous testing and selection in our R&D facilities.

The science behind 4salt


By exposing our germplasm to rising levels of salt in the growth substrate, we identify differences between species and varieties. The chart shows the important differences between species. Within each species, there are also significant differences in salt tolerance. The 4Salt® brand is used to identify varieties and mixtures optimized for saline conditions, based on our R&D results.
