EDN
EDN - the Draslovka Services Group's flagship proprietary product - is a global first for Aussie farmers; a non-ozone depleting, broad spectrum answer to today's soil disease challenges.
EDN was developed through direct collaboration between Draslovka Group and the Australian strawberry industry, a working friendship that continues today.
Trials over a number of years ensured an impressive product capable of reinvigorating the 21st century fumigation market.

EDN treats a wide range of soil borne pathogens, nematodes and weeds at a typical dosage rate of 50 g/m2 and it is the only approved fumigant for control of charcoal rot, providing a solution for a problem that affects roughly 30 per cent of Victorian strawberry crops alone.
EDN is an ideal drop in replacement for methyl bromide, which has been heavily restricted across the world with limited alternatives.
Draslovka's solution delivers similarly high efficacy without the detrimental long-term effects to humans and the environment.
With healthier strawberry plants and higher yields with no known global warming potential, it's no wonder that EDN is favourable among the popular responsible farming movement.
