The level of research and development in our laboratory at the Bogrundet nursery is unmatched by other Swedish seedling producers.

SCA has the most comprehensive plant quality monitoring programme in the country.
We follow the growth of a seedling carefully, and make regular analyses of its vitality, the balance between root and top development, and nutrient composition. SCA has a unique system that enables us to track a seedling through its adolescent years. This provides valuable data for both cultivation and forestry.
We test insect repellents, planting schemes and fertilisers in our experimental greenhouse – to promote the health of our seedlings.
