MORILLO STORIDO

Reliable Yields in Challenging Conditions

Morilo Storido by the Israeli breeding powerhouse Hazera is a late-maturing white cabbage hybrid designed for professionals who prioritize consistency in both fresh produce and processing markets. With a growing cycle of 130-140 days, this variety is engineered for farmers who need reliable performance even when faced with high disease pressure in the field.

Why Choose This Hybrid?

• Pathogen Resistance: Hazera’s breeding program has endowed this hybrid with strong tolerance to Mycosphaerella leaf spot and brown spot. This is a critical advantage during the second half of the season when infection risks typically peak.
• Compact and Dense Heads: Producing 1.0–2.0 kg heads with a compact structure and a distinctive yellow-green hue, Morilo Storido meets the specific demands of supermarkets that prioritize user-friendly, retail-ready sizes.
• Versatility: Unlike many niche varieties, this hybrid performs exceptionally well in both culinary applications (fresh market) and industrial processing.

Pros and Considerations

The core strength of the Morilo Storido lies in the balance between plant health and head quality. Because the foliage remains healthy due to its natural resistance, the cabbage retains its commercial appeal until the very end of the harvest window. However, growers should note that with a weight cap of around 2 kg, it is not intended for markets demanding massive, oversized heads; rather, it is designed for density, storage life, and premium quality.

For an agronomist, this hybrid is a practical tool. Its inherent resilience allows for a more efficient fungicide application schedule, reducing overall input costs. If your objective is to supply a high-quality product that maintains its appearance through the supply chain, Morilo Storido offers a dependable foundation for your crop rotation.
