A professional-grade processing onion hybrid, known for its high dry matter content and strong resistance to root diseases.
Description
Engineered for the Food Processing Industry
When professional growers select onion hybrids for processing, their focus shifts from long-term storage to dry matter content and processing efficiency. Solution F1 by Syngenta is a targeted hybrid specifically developed for the dehydration, freezing, and canning industries. It balances high yields (50–70 tons/ha) with the technical parameters essential for industrial lines.
Core Advantages
- High Dry Matter Content (10–12%): This high concentration makes Solution F1 a preferred raw material for onion drying and processing facilities.
- Disease Resistance: With built-in genetic resistance to Pink Root and Fusarium wilt, this hybrid significantly reduces the reliance on intensive fungicide programs, making it a sustainable choice for high-yield farming.
- Optimized Morphology: The round shape and light-brown skin are engineered for easy handling, automated peeling, and consistent slicing.
Why choose Solution F1?
Unlike onions intended for fresh market retail, Solution F1 is designed for a 3–4 month storage window, which is ideal for factories that process their intake immediately following harvest. As a long-day onion with a 100–110 day maturity cycle, it is built to maximize the growth potential during peak daylight conditions.
For growers supplying food processing companies, this hybrid offers a clear advantage in predictability and product quality. Although it requires manual harvesting, the trade-off is higher crop integrity and less waste during the cleaning process. It is a precise solution for farmers looking to deliver high-quality yields that meet strict industrial standards.

By day length
Onion is very sensitive to day length, so it is very important not to delay sowing and to cultivate varieties and hybrids appropriate for the day length, previously tested in this zone. Growing hybrids not intended for this zone can significantly affect yield, possibly causing pr... |

Yield
Yield
Overall bulb harvest per unit area. Depends on both onion variety characteristics and agronomic practices, fertilizers, and irrigation. Under optimal growing conditions, an onion yield of 100 tons per hectare and above is not considered record-breaking. |
50 - 70 tons/ha |

Harvest Method
Harvest Method
Most existing onion varieties are harvested manually. This is because onion bulbs are very sensitive to mechanical damage. However, there are varieties whose bulbs have a hard consistency and are suitable for mechanical harvesting. |
