NAVARA

Growing «Navara»: A Reliable Choice

When planning a season, the main question is the reliability of the variety. The «Navara» pepper from «Ooo Agromir-don» is a choice for those who don’t want to gamble with diseases. In my practice, this variety has proven to be a workhorse, especially regarding its resistance to brown spot and Mycosphaerella spot. For a grower, this means fewer fungicide applications, which significantly lowers production costs.

Conditions and Yield

«Navara» is equally predictable both in open fields and greenhouses. The 80–100 day maturation period allows for a clear harvest schedule. It is not a demanding variety: a strong root system allows it to handle humidity fluctuations well, and standard agricultural practices yield expected results.

• Fruit shape: neat conical form, 8–9 cm long by 8 cm in diameter.
• Weight and walls: 160–190 grams per fruit with a wall thickness of 7–8 mm — an ideal balance for marketability and transport.
• Color transition: from light yellow in the technical stage to bright red in the biological stage.

I would particularly note its shelf life and durability. Thanks to its dense walls, «Navara» remains firm in crates during transport to wholesalers. If managed correctly, the yield of marketable peppers is high, and the cull rate remains minimal. This is a sound choice for those who value quality, backed by the originator, «Agromir-don» and Konstantin Vitalyevich Tkachenko.
