A high-yielding long-day hybrid for long-term storage and industrial processing with strong root rot resistance.
Description
A Professional Choice for Processing and Long-Term Storage
Sabroso F1 by Nunhems (Netherlands) is a long-day onion hybrid designed for industrial scale and high-efficiency operations. Unlike many mid-season varieties, this hybrid hits the 120–130 day maturity window with precision, delivering a crop that is specifically tailored for mechanical harvesting without significant losses.
Key Advantages of Sabroso F1
- Root System Resilience: The hybrid's standout feature is its genetic resistance to Pink Root and Fusarium. In intensive farming systems where soil pathogens are a constant threat, this resilience significantly lowers the need for intensive fungicide applications and protects the crop's marketability.
- Processing Quality: Featuring a dense, dark-bronze bulb with tightly adhering skin, Sabroso F1 is built for durability. With a dry matter content of 10–12% and clean white flesh, it is highly prized for drying, freezing, and food production applications.
- Storage Performance: The ability to store for 7–8 months without compromising quality allows growers to time their market entry and avoid the post-harvest price slump.
Who is this hybrid for?
Sabroso F1 is not designed for hobby gardens; it is a high-performance tool for commercial producers operating on a large scale. With a recommended plant density of 800,000 to 900,000 units per hectare, it requires strict adherence to irrigation schedules and professional management. The onion’s uniform, round shape ensures efficiency in automatic peeling and slicing, making it a preferred choice for large-scale food processors. If your strategy involves supply contracts and high-volume output, Sabroso F1 offers the reliability you need.
