Description

Meranto F1 is an early-maturing onion hybrid from Hazera, specifically bred to meet the demands of both fresh produce markets and the processing industry. The plants exhibit strong vigor, characterized by erect, robust foliage covered with a substantial wax layer. This structural integrity contributes to the plant’s resilience against environmental stressors and diseases.

The bulbs of Meranto F1 are notable for their large size, uniformity, and perfectly spherical shape. They possess a dark bronze skin with high-quality cover scales, enhancing their visual appeal and durability during handling and storage. The bulbs also feature a very thin neck, which facilitates efficient curing and reduces the risk of post-harvest diseases.

One of the key advantages of Meranto F1 is its high yield potential, making it a cost-effective choice for growers. The variety also exhibits low susceptibility to vernalization, reducing the risk of premature bolting. This characteristic ensures a more uniform and predictable harvest.

In terms of storage, Meranto F1 onions can be stored for up to six months under optimal conditions, allowing for extended marketability and supply chain flexibility. This extended shelf life is particularly beneficial for meeting market demands during off-peak seasons.
