Dividend

Field Performance and Disease Resistance

When selecting a tomato hybrid for long-cycle production, the balance between plant health and harvest quality is paramount. The 'Dividend' hybrid by Nunhems proves to be a consistent performer. With a 120–130 day maturity period, it is well-suited for the main production season, showing excellent resistance to Fusarium and Cladosporium. This trait significantly reduces the need for frequent fungicide applications, saving on input costs while ensuring plant longevity.

Handling and Marketability

The fruit size, averaging 80–100 grams, is highly favored by retailers and for fresh market processing. Beyond its size, the 'Dividend' stands out due to its exceptional transportability. The fruit skin is firm enough to withstand the rigors of logistics and storage, ensuring that the product reaches the consumer in prime condition without typical post-harvest losses.

Why Growers Choose Dividend

The key value of this hybrid lies in its predictability. Its inherent resistance to late blight (phytophthora) makes it a reliable asset in regions with high humidity. For farmers and operators, this translates to fewer risks and a more manageable workload during the critical stages of fruit ripening. It is a professional-grade seed material that delivers consistent, high-quality yields, meeting the rigorous standards of modern agriculture.
