Description
Nerato F1 bulbs have a round shape with a slender neck and a dense, rich bronze or golden-colored skin. The outer scales are well attached to the bulb, contributing to excellent storage quality. The flesh is white, crisp, and juicy, with a moderately sharp, sweet, and full-bodied flavor. The high percentage of single-celled bulbs makes this hybrid particularly attractive for marketing and processing.
The hybrid is designed for mechanical harvesting and exhibits resistance to bolting and root rot. Nerato F1 possesses a unique combination of high yield and long storage life — the onion retains its marketable appearance and nutritional qualities until April, and under optimal storage conditions, until the end of June. The recommended sowing rate is 1.0 million seeds per hectare, ensuring efficient use of sowing area.
