Variety traits

Corn salad yield

Valerianella locusta (L.) Laterr.

The yield of corn salad is determined by the mass of marketable leaf rosettes per unit area, expressed in kg/m². The crop is capable of producing a second harvest when rosettes are cut at a height of 2–5 cm from the soil surface.

In the reference 11 varieties crop Corn salad, where this is mentioned in the description.

Using intensive cultivation technologies, the yield of corn salad averages from 1.93 to 2.68 kg/m². This indicator can be calculated as the mass of a single marketable harvest or as the total volume of produce obtained from several cuts, thanks to the crop's biological ability to regenerate after harvesting.

Key factors determining the mass of the marketable portion include planting density, soil fertility levels, and temperature-light conditions. Optimizing these agrotechnical parameters in protected cultivation and vertical farming systems allows for maximum productivity levels to be achieved.
