Carrot Nanda F1 is a late Dutch hybrid of the Chantenay type, developed by breeders of the company Bejo Zaden from the Netherlands. The vegetation period is about 125-135 days, allowing for stable and high yields in various climatic conditions, including southern and arid regions. The hybrid is adaptable to soils, preferring loose, slightly acidic loamy or sandy soils, but also grows successfully on heavy black earth and clay soils. For optimal growth, crop rotation is recommended, with carrots planted after tomatoes, potatoes, onions, or cucurbit crops, as well as mandatory thinning of plants.
The carrots of Nanda F1 have a semi-conical shape, reaching up to 22 cm in length and up to 500 grams in weight. They feature a smooth surface, vibrant orange color, and dense structure without cracking. The flesh is juicy and sweet, making this hybrid particularly suitable for processing into juices and baby purees. Due to resistance to leaf diseases, cercosporosis, black rot, blossom end rot, and rot, carrots maintain high quality and marketability for an extended period.
The yield of Nanda F1 carrots is approximately 7-7.5 kg per square meter or 100-120 tons per hectare with proper agronomic practices. The fruits have good storability, allowing them to be stored for several months without loss of flavor and quality. This hybrid is an excellent choice for those who value stable yields, versatility in use, and resistance to adverse growing conditions.
