Talk the talk

You recently launched a revolutionary new product for the gardening market. Please tell us about it.

My father and I discovered a similar technology 14 years ago in Tennessee, which was used for industrial applications. There was some talk about its potential use in horticulture, which got the better of my dad’s curiosity. So he set off on a mission to research the effectiveness and the benefits. Today I am glad he did - he has opened up a technological Pandora’s box, which will benefit the world for generations. The development programme is all Irish. Shannon Development, University of Limerick and Warrenstown Agricultural College in Co Meath not only became involved but also totally committed to the concept.
