Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety is a descendant of the varieties Olinda and Cara. The maturation period is early maincrop, being approximately 70 days. Tubers have an oval shape and large size, with shallow eyes. The dry matter content is approximately 18.5%; the variety is resistant to darkening and mechanical damage.

The variety possesses high resistance to common scab. Resistance to late blight of tubers is estimated at a medium level, while foliage resistance is below average. The plant is sensitive to blackleg, powdery scab, and slug damage. Tubers are prone to greening, therefore it is recommended to control planting depth and carry out harvesting in a timely manner after skin set.
