Daffodil cropping twice as nice for gross margins

摘要

One West Country arable farmer is helping gardeners across the Adantic to add a splash of spring colour to their gardens, by supplying daffodil bulbs to US garden centres. Daffodils are one of several premium crops grown by 2013 Farmers Weekly ArableFarmer of the Year Jeremy Oatey on his l,080ha of cropping in Cornwall. He was introduced to daffodil growing by a Dutch trader living in Holbeach, Lincolnshire, and he gained the knowledge and skills in growing the crop.
