Compared to traditional vegetable growing areas, such as Lincolnshire, Cornwall's mild winter climate makes it ideal for all-year round vegetable production, but this does place a high workload on tractors. Based near Hayle, not far from Land's End, in the space of 15 years Southern England Farms Ltd (SEF) have grown to become one of the largest vegetable growers in the south west, looking after 3,200ha of crops spread between Land's End and Padstow. Brassicas account for the majority of cropping, with summer Calibrese (800ha), Cauliflower (320ha), winter Cauliflower (720ha) and winter and spring greens (360ha and 80ha respectively) accounting for the bulk of the acreage, which are supplied to Tesco, Sainsbury and Morrison's.
