Because of their natural habit, unrooted cuttings of the selected products are somewhat fine. It is therefore required that customers use 2 cuttings per cell / pot. This will utilize the full potential of these varieties and result in a higher quality product. Products included in the 2 - for -1 program may change. If cuttings are used / planted only 1 per cell / pot, customers will be required to report it to RAI and are responsible for the cost of full royalty. To arrange a payment, please contact RAI. RAI has been appointed as our agent in North America for the protection of Selecta varieties.
