Fersan Farmers Kevin and Joel Green
Based in Spring Valley, Hanover, multi crop farmers Kevin and Joel Green have been using our fertilizers for over 15 years, and are as impressed with their effect on their crop yields as they are with how quickly they can see the results.

With the assistance of our Technical Sales Consultant Noel Hamilton, the Greens – who started off as sugar cane farmers – now cultivate callaloo as their main crop, along with cassava , banana, sweet potatoes, plantain, okra, coconut.
