Description
Reliable Yield for Processing and Long-Term Storage
The «Disco» onion hybrid from Swiss leader Syngenta is a go-to choice for commercial growers focusing on mechanized harvesting and high-quality storage capacity. With a maturity period of 110–120 days, this hybrid is perfectly suited for large-scale operations aiming for consistent output.
Practical Field Advantages:
- Mechanized Harvesting: Engineered for modern agricultural standards, the hybrid boasts a strong root system and firm structure, ensuring minimal damage during machine harvesting, which is crucial for large-field efficiency.
- Disease Resistance: High tolerance to pink root rot allows for success in fields with intensive rotation cycles, reducing risks that typically lead to yield losses in standard varieties.
- Extended Shelf Life: A storage window of 6–7 months provides producers with the flexibility to withhold product from the market during harvest surplus, maximizing returns by selling during high-demand months.
Product Specifications:
The bulbs are uniform, round in shape, and weigh between 200–250 grams, featuring an attractive light-brown skin. Due to its balanced flavor profile, «Disco» serves dual purposes: it is an excellent salad onion for retail chains and a high-demand raw material for industrial processing (slicing and dehydration). Its combination of durability and optimal maturation makes it a workhorse for modern commercial vegetable production.
