Cabbage Tofar F1

Stable yields in any environment: Why choose Tofar F1?

When selecting a mid-season white cabbage, agronomists look for the right balance between maturity speed and storage quality. Tofar F1, a hybrid from the Dutch breeding company Bejo, provides exactly that «golden mean», effectively solving two critical challenges: disease resistance and market flexibility.

Protection and Cultivation

A major concern with many cabbage hybrids is susceptibility to thrips and fusarium, which can ruin a crop in the field or ruin its market value. Tofar F1 is engineered to minimize these risks. High resistance to Fusarium wilt allows for cultivation on problematic soils, while the dense leaf structure and specific wax coating provide a robust natural barrier against thrips.

Harvest and Marketability

With a maturity period of 70–80 days, this hybrid is perfect for conveyor-belt production. Unlike many early-maturing varieties, Tofar F1 offers a significant competitive advantage: a shelf life of 3 to 6 months. This gives the grower flexibility: to sell heads fresh at the end of the season or to store part of the crop for mid-winter sales when prices typically climb.

• Head mass: 1 to 4 kg, allowing for flexible planting density (35,000 to 50,000 plants/ha) to target specific weight requirements from retailers or processors.
• Appearance: Round, vibrant green, dense heads that hold up exceptionally well during transport.
• Usage: Suitable for both the fresh market and professional processing (fermentation/sauerkraut).

Tofar F1 is a choice for those who prefer to avoid the «lottery» of farming. If you need a predictable, high-performing hybrid that is just as excellent in a salad as it is in processing, this Bejo variety is a reliable partner for your fields.
