Fresh Market Consumption — White Cabbage

Brassica oleracea L. (White Cabbage Group)

The use of white cabbage focused on early and ultra-early maturing varieties with tender leaf texture and low storage potential.

In the reference 363 varieties crop White cabbage, where this is mentioned in the description.

For fresh consumption, predominantly ultra-early and early maturing varieties and hybrids with a short vegetation period of 60 to 120 days are selected. The primary characteristics of such produce are a tender, succulent leaf texture and a less dense head structure, which results in superior taste qualities.

This group of varieties is characterized by poor storability and a tendency to crack when overgrown, making them unsuitable for long-term storage. The use of such varieties in agricultural production is aimed at creating a "green conveyor" and supplying the market with fresh vitamin-rich produce during the summer period.
