Cultivation
Brassica oleracea L. (Red Cabbage Group)
The processing suitability of red cabbage is determined by a combination of morphological head parameters and anthocyanin content, which influence the quality and color of the final product.
In the reference 58 varieties crop Red cabbage, where this is mentioned in the description.
The processing suitability of red cabbage is based on high head density, which ensures an optimal yield of raw material during shredding and mechanical processing. Breeding of hybrids for industrial purposes is focused on size uniformity, structural density, and the ability to stand in the field for extended periods to facilitate mechanized harvesting.
A key factor for processing is the biochemical composition, specifically the level of anthocyanin accumulation, which determines the retention of antioxidant properties and color stability of the finished product. During fermentation, the density and tissue structure require adjustments to processing formulations, as they influence the intensity of microbiological processes, unlike those of white cabbage.
