Description
Professional choice for industrial onion processing
The «Cortland F1» onion from Bejo is a strategic asset for large-scale operations focused on high-quality processing output. As a short-day hybrid with a maturity window of 90–100 days, it allows for seamless integration into harvesting schedules and production line planning.
Field performance and technological value
For the modern grower, the primary advantage of Cortland F1 is its built-in resistance to pink root rot. In environments prone to soil-borne pathogens or intensive irrigation systems, this hybrid maintains a vigorous root system, ensuring consistent bulb development until harvest.
- Processing-ready shape: The rounded bulbs, combined with their snow-white skin, are perfectly suited for mechanical peeling and high-speed slicing operations.
- Dry matter content: With a steady 10–12% dry matter content, the variety meets the critical quality requirements for dehydration and semi-finished product manufacturing.
- Reduced input costs: Natural resistance to rot significantly lowers the pressure of fungal diseases, allowing for a more efficient fungicide application strategy.
Cortland F1 is specifically selected for fields with a history of soil fatigue, where standard varieties might falter under disease pressure. By utilizing this hybrid, growers ensure that the raw material entering the factory meets the strict standards of industrial processing, providing both high yield performance and predictable structural integrity of the bulb.
