"Syngenta Vegetable Seeds offers the highest resistance to support lettuce growers’ needs for both conventional and organic markets. We are also committed to our full-line of       specialty lettuces for mechanical harvest.” - Nick Barnes, Western Commercial Unit Head, USA.

As mechanization continues to gain traction in the lettuce industry and growers look to reduce labor requirements, Syngenta is developing varieties that are more amenable to mechanical harvest and mechanical thinning. Varieties that fit new production methods, but also have tipburn tolerance and maintain the eating experience that consumers demand.
