The sweet smell of sweet potato success
Developed by Vineland in collaboration with Louisiana State University, Radiance is the first sweet potato variety bred by Canadians for Canadians.
Vineland realized early on that ensuring Canadian growers have access to locally grown slips would be critical to Radiance’s success. To date, Vineland has licensed Radiance to five Canadian and one U.S. slip producer, with the goal of building a coast-to-coast network to meet Canadian growers’ demand for sweet potato slips estimated at up to 165 million slips annually.
