A high-yielding, long-day onion hybrid known for its long storage life, disease resistance, and suitability for mechanized harvesting.
Description
Professional standard for long-day onions
The «Vision» onion hybrid from Swiss agritech leader Syngenta is a staple for commercial vegetable producers worldwide. Engineered specifically for long-day growing conditions, this hybrid has become synonymous with reliability, high output, and exceptional storability. With a yield potential exceeding 100 tonnes per hectare, Vision offers a robust return on investment for large-scale operations focused on efficiency and market supply continuity.
Key agrotechnical features
Syngenta has prioritized resilience in the development of Vision. The hybrid exhibits strong resistance to Peronospora (downy mildew), which significantly reduces the need for frequent fungicide applications throughout the growing season. Additionally, its genetic profile provides reliable protection against Fusarium wilt, ensuring plant health from emergence to maturity.
- Growth cycle: A maturation period of 110–120 days makes it highly predictable for planning and scheduling harvest operations.
- Bulb characteristics: The onions reach an optimal weight of 200–250 grams. They feature a uniform, rounded shape with a deep bronze-brown skin that is highly resistant to mechanical impact.
- Storage and logistics: Vision is a champion of shelf life, capable of maintaining quality for 8–9 months post-harvest, allowing producers to hold stock for favorable market windows.
Designed for modern agribusiness, Vision is perfectly suited for mechanized harvesting. Its strong root attachment and tightly layered, dense outer scales ensure that the crop survives machine handling with minimal damage. For growers aiming for high-density planting and heavy-duty mechanical harvesting, Vision represents the pinnacle of Syngenta’s breeding success in the onion category.
