Chambord RZ F1

Consistent Yields with Dutch Genetics

Working with the Chambord RZ F1 hybrid from Rijk Zwaan, you immediately notice the precision of Dutch breeding. This cauliflower variety performs reliably in moderate climates. At a recommended density of 25,000–30,000 plants per hectare, the hybrid responds predictably to agricultural practices, forming marketable heads weighing 1.0–1.5 kg. For a commercial grower, this translates to streamlined logistics and consistent yields per hectare.

Agronomic Features and Performance

A maturity period of 70–80 days after transplanting allows for efficient harvest scheduling. The compact shape of the head is a major benefit: it saves space in crates during harvest and transport, while the grey-green color provides a fresh, professional look on the market shelf.

• Planting density: optimal at 25-30k plants/ha.
• Average head weight: 1.0–1.5 kg — the ideal size for retail and processing.
• Usage: highly versatile, suitable for both the fresh market and industrial processing (including freezing).

Throughout the growing cycle, the plant demonstrates high stress tolerance. The compact plant structure simplifies field maintenance, making inter-row operations easier and minimizing the risk of mechanical leaf damage. Choosing Chambord RZ F1 means choosing stability, ensuring you get a high-quality product without unnecessary risks or surprises during the final stages of the season.
