Variety description

10 August 2026

The hybrid belongs to mid-late or late varieties with a vegetation period of 120–140 days. The root vegetables have a cylindrical shape, a smooth surface, and a blunt tip, reaching a length of 18–20 cm and a mass of 100–200 g. The color of the root is uniform, intensely orange on the outside and inside.

The foliage is medium-sized, strong, with an upright growth habit, which is adapted for mechanized harvesting. The hybrid is resistant to cracking and breaking and possesses high tolerance to powdery mildew and fungal diseases.

The produce is distinguished by a high content of sugars, carotene, and dry matter, suitable for long-term storage until May. The hybrid is multi-purpose: used for fresh market sales, including washing and packaging, production of bunching carrots, and industrial processing.
