The CTRF staff (click here for photo) was busy in the seed nursery and selection block today. From late July and until early September considerable work is done to make crosses to develop new varieties, select superior plants and advance them to the next generation, evaluate the agronomic performance of progeny and increase seed of new and existing cultivars. All of CTRF’s currently registered varieties, including the newly registered hybrid CTH8, originated in the seed nursery and selection block.
