Quality

Syncro remains one of the highest yielding fully recommended spring bean suitable for the export human consumption market and remains in demand for that market. Relatively large seeded with bright buff appearance and pale hilum. Skin colour and cooking characteristics have proved very suitable for premium export markets.

Additionally, high protein content coupled with the high yield means Syncro remains a good choice for the feed market or for use in feed ration as home grown protein.
