Bomont F1

Stability and Industrial Performance

The 'Beaumont F1' broccoli from Bejo is a precision-engineered hybrid designed for large-scale production and industrial processing. Unlike general-purpose varieties, this Dutch hybrid focuses on uniformity and durability, ensuring that processors receive a consistent raw material that meets stringent market standards.

Key Agronomic Strengths

The primary advantage of 'Beaumont F1' is its genetic resistance to Fusarium wilt. This trait is essential for fields with a history of soil-borne pathogens, providing growers with a secure harvest even in high-pressure environments. By reducing the reliance on aggressive fungicide applications, the hybrid helps manage production costs while ensuring crop longevity.

• Processing Utility: With a weight ranging from 2.0 to 3.0 kg and a uniform, rounded head shape, it is perfectly suited for mechanized harvesting and factory-line processing.
• Color Retention: The intense, dark-green color is highly resistant to degradation, remaining vibrant even after industrial blanching and freezing, which is critical for the frozen food sector.
• Optimized Maturity: A 70–80 day maturity cycle from transplanting allows for precise production scheduling, helping farmers align their harvest with facility processing capacities.

Who Should Choose Beaumont F1?

This hybrid is not intended for casual gardening; it is a high-performance crop for professional agribusinesses. Its strength lies in its ability to produce heavy, high-quality heads consistently. While the variety requires a well-managed nutritional program to reach its full potential of 3 kg per head, the trade-off is a high-value product that excels in the premium frozen vegetable market. It stands out in the Bejo portfolio as a reliable, disease-resistant workhorse for those who value efficiency above all else.
