Start of Dutch sweetcornseason

''We start each year in Senegal with our own cultivation on our farm. This is the most challenging period of the year due to the climate this time of year and the distance to The Netherlands. Then we try to start as early as possible with our sweetcorn from Southern Morocco, and continue the season as long as possible with cultivation in Northern Morocco until July. At the end of July, the Dutch season starts which ensures a smooth transition to the Moroccan season. In July, the warm weather in the Netherlands starts, the summer holidays begin and people eat outside more often. This causes the demand for sweetcorn to increase: this is still a delicious product for the barbecue. In August, September and a large part of October, there is plenty of local sweetcorn available," according to Jody Viljoen, product manager sweetcorn.
