Horticulture generally refers to small-scale gardening, and agriculture to the growing of field crops, usually on a large scale, although the distinction is not always precise (for example, market gardening could be classed either way).. EDEN currently sells this technology in the agricultural market, under the brand name Messenger. The agreement grants Scotts exclusive global rights to research the use of harpin technology in the worldwide consumer lawn and garden market (in combination with products such as Miracle-Gro[R]); the lawn, tree and shrub service markets; and the branded plants market. The agreement also stipulates that EDEN and Scotts will work together in a mutually beneficial way to develop new products to be sold exclusively by Scotts. Separately EDEN expects to name Scotts a distributor for selling Messenger to the professional horticulture and turf markets. |
