Cabbage MAJORCA

Technological potential of Mallorca cauliflower

Dutch breeding from Wing Seed, represented by the Mallorca hybrid, demonstrates a balanced approach to industrial cultivation. This hybrid is tailored for the processing segment, where density of florets and predictable harvest timing are the decisive factors.

Biological parameters and physical properties

A vegetation period of 70–80 days from transplanting allows for efficient planning of raw material supplies for production lines. The flat-round head has a mass in the range of 1.0–2.0 kg, which is the standard for mechanized handling. Such inflorescence geometry minimizes waste during segregation into florets, which is critical for deep-freezing or canned vegetable mix production.

Why this variety is selected for processing:

• High uniformity of marketable produce: all heads reach technical maturity almost simultaneously, which reduces labor costs for multiple harvests.
• Structural density: the inflorescences are resistant to mechanical stress during transport to processing facilities, maintaining their commercial appearance.
• Raw material conversion: the physical parameters of the head allow for a high output percentage of clean product during industrial cutting.

Wing Seed's engineering approach to this hybrid avoids excessive brittleness of the inflorescences, making Mallorca a reliable base product for production lines where consistent quality of the final semi-finished product is paramount.
