Kaptur

Professional choice for the fresh market

For agricultural producers focusing on the fresh vegetable market, the "Kaptur" hybrid from Bejo offers a balanced solution between early maturity and market quality. Developed in the Netherlands, this hybrid is engineered to meet the strict aesthetic and structural requirements of modern supermarket chains.

Agronomic resilience and protection

A significant advantage of "Kaptur" is its robust genetic resistance to viral diseases, including Tobacco Mosaic Virus and other viral infections that often jeopardize cabbage crops. By integrating this hybrid into their crop rotation, growers can significantly reduce dependency on intensive insecticide programs aimed at controlling vectors of viral transmission, thereby lowering production costs and environmental impact.

Key cultivation and operational parameters

• Maturity cycle: 70-80 days from transplanting. This allows farmers to plan harvest windows precisely to align with seasonal market demand.
• Product Specifications: The dark green color and flat-round head shape ensure high consumer appeal. With a unit weight of 0.1–0.2 kg, it is perfectly suited for portion-controlled fresh produce retail.
• Storage potential: One of the standout features is its shelf life of 3–6 months. This gives producers the ability to extend their sales window, avoiding price dips during peak harvest times.

The compact and dense structure of the "Kaptur" heads ensures excellent post-harvest logistics, minimizing physical damage during transportation. This hybrid is a reliable choice for operations aiming to minimize biological risks while maintaining high output quality throughout the supply chain.
