Oregon Seed Company Provided All the Grass On World Cup Fields in Brazil

DLF Pickseed in Halsay, Oreogn is the World Cup's major grass seed provider.

 

Vice President Richard Myers says they shipped 300-thousand pounds of seeds in April to Brazil.

 

"This process was started four years ago and we worked through a number of years to develop the best grass seed. We did extensive testing with many different organizations and many fields and a lot of different grasses were tried out."

 

DLF Pickseed seeded specific fields during the 2010 World Cup in South Africa, but this time is the only grass seed distributor.

 

They are already on board to provide grass for the upcoming World Cups in Russia and Quatar.
