Tambora

Stable Yield for Long-Term Storage

French selection from Clause always guarantees a predictable result in the field. The 'Tambora' cabbage was developed as a tool for farmers focused on the fresh market, providing the ability to sell produce until late spring. The key advantage of this hybrid is the combination of adaptability to cultivation techniques and excellent shelf life.

Agronomic Features and Protection

When cultivating 'Tambora', the focus is on plant health. The hybrid has natural resistance to Fusarium wilt, which is critical for fields with high disease pressure. An additional benefit is its high resistance to rot, which minimizes losses in commercial quality both during the ripening phase and while in cold storage.

• Vegetation Period: 80–90 days from seedling transplant. This mid-late segment allows for a dense harvest before the first frosts.
• Product Parameters: The heads are round-flat with a distinct bluish-green color. The weight of a single head ranges from 2 to 3 kg, which is the 'gold standard' for retail chains and wholesale buyers.
• Storage Potential: Capable of maintaining commercial quality for 6 to 8 months.

Practical Application in Farming

'Tambora' addresses two key farm tasks: immediate sales right after harvest and long-term storage for off-season supply. The dense structure of the head allows for trouble-free transportation over long distances without risk of mechanical damage. The optimal weight of 2–3 kg makes this hybrid a versatile solution for supermarkets, as such head sizes are in the highest demand among end consumers.
