Cabbage Mlada

Stable Yields on Challenging Soils

The Mlada white cabbage variety is a specialized solution for farmers working on plots contaminated with clubroot. In environments where most popular hybrids succumb to soil-borne pathogens, this variety demonstrates remarkable resilience. Developed by the Federal Research Center for Rice in collaboration with private agricultural entities, Mlada is focused on delivering high-quality commercial yields within a mid-season timeframe.

Agronomic Potential

The vegetation period from seedling transplanting to technical maturity is 90–110 days. This makes the variety an excellent option for fresh market supplies in late summer and early autumn. Rounded heads weighing between 1.5 and 2.5 kg are of optimal size for retail — they are compact, easy to transport, and enjoy steady demand among end consumers.

Strengths and Weaknesses

• Immunity: Genetic resistance to clubroot and fusarium wilt makes Mlada a top choice for high-risk farming regions.
• Marketability: The dense, green heads maintain freshness well when stored properly.
• Specifics: As a mid-season crop, it requires precise planting schedules to ensure harvest is completed before the first frosts.

Mlada is not about setting weight records, but about securing reliable yields where other varieties fail due to disease pressure. If your field has a history of soil infections, choosing this variety is a smart way to protect your investment in high-quality seeds.
