Ophelia

Efficient choice for fresh market supply

The 'Ofelia' white cabbage variety, developed by the Dagestan Breeding Experimental Station of Viticulture and Vegetable Growing, is a robust choice for growers focused on high-quality fresh produce. With a growing cycle of 70–80 days, this variety fits perfectly into a production schedule to ensure steady supply during the mid-season period.

Operational advantages in the field

The variety is prized for its uniform head size, ranging from 1.0 to 2.0 kg. This weight range represents the "sweet spot" for retail consumers, making it highly attractive for direct supermarket sales. The rounded, green heads offer a clean and fresh appearance that stands out on the shelf.

• Post-harvest durability: the dense structure of the heads ensures excellent transportability, reducing losses during logistics and delivery to distribution centers.
• Yield predictability: developed with a focus on stability, the variety shows reliable head formation even under fluctuating field conditions, ensuring a high percentage of marketable produce.
• Management ease: 'Ofelia' responds well to standard irrigation and nutrient management practices, making it an economically viable choice for farmers who prioritize efficiency and balanced operational costs.

By integrating 'Ofelia' into your planting program, you can streamline your harvesting cycle. It is a practical solution for producers aiming to combine consistent crop quality with straightforward, effective agricultural management.
