Corsica

Stable yields in any climate: why growers choose Corsica cabbage

For professional vegetable growers, choosing a mid-late hybrid is all about finding the balance between head size and storage capacity. The Dutch breeding expertise of Wing Seed offers the Corsica hybrid, a solution tailored to meet the needs of both the fresh market supply chain and the processing industry.

Resilience as the foundation of profitability

The primary concern for farmers growing white cabbage is Fusarium wilt. Corsica possesses a genetically inherent immunity to this pathogen, allowing growers to avoid losses during the active growth phase. While other hybrids may require aggressive fungicide programs, Corsica maintains its full yield potential, significantly reducing input costs.

Technical specifications and marketability

With a maturation period of 90–100 days from transplanting, this variety is highly convenient for crop rotation planning. The compact, round heads, weighing between 3.0 and 4.0 kg, are densely packed, which is a critical factor for both visual appeal and transportability.

• Storage longevity: Maintaining quality for up to 6 months allows farmers to manage sales flexibly, targeting periods of peak market prices.
• Versatility: The dense leaf structure is perfect for slicing and fermenting, while the vibrant green color and glossy finish make it a standout choice for supermarket shelves.
• Compact growth: The head shape allows for higher planting density, maximizing yield per hectare without compromising on individual head weight.

If you are looking for a predictable outcome, resistance to disease, and a product that stays fresh for up to six months, Corsica by Wing Seed is an essential addition to your agricultural operations.
