Carrot Cupar F1 is a late-maturing hybrid of the Chantenay type, developed by the Dutch company Bejo Zaden. This variety has a long growing period of 110 to 135 days, allowing harvest during the spring-summer period. The roots are conical, smooth and even, with a rich orange color, weighing from 120 to 400 grams. Thanks to its high uniformity and resistance to cracking, Cupar F1 is suitable for mechanical harvesting and has excellent taste qualities.
The hybrid is highly productive — up to 50-60 tons per hectare, and it is recommended to grow it on moist, light soils with low acidity, free of weeds. Carrots grow well on various types of soil, and seeding density affects root size: roots are larger with sparse planting and smaller with dense planting. Cupar F1 is resistant to several diseases, including cercospora, alternaria, and black rot, contributing to a stable and high-quality yield.
The harvested crop retains its market appearance and taste qualities for a long time, making this hybrid ideal for long-term storage. Carrot Cupar F1 is versatile in use: it is suitable for fresh consumption, after thermal processing, for making juices, purees, vegetable blends, freezing, and canning. Due to its characteristics, this hybrid is an excellent choice for farmers and gardeners aiming to obtain a high-quality and productive crop.
