Carrot NANSEN

Why Nansen by Hazera is a pro's choice

When planning your season, the goal is to minimize risks and ensure a uniform, high-quality crop. The Nansen carrot from Hazera’s Israeli breeding program solves this by offering exceptional flexibility. You aren't tied to one scenario: this hybrid performs perfectly whether you're targeting the early fresh market with bunching carrots or leaving them in the ground until late autumn for processing or long-term storage.

Controlled yield in the field

In real-world conditions, Nansen is valued for its predictability. The 'Nantes' type traits are classic: cylindrical shape, smooth skin, and a deep orange hue that holds up even if harvest is delayed. Maturity ranges from 90 to 130 days, allowing you to build a harvest conveyor. Depending on planting density, you can consistently hit an average root weight of 80 to 150 grams—the ideal size for netting or supermarket shelves.

Tech specs and field performance

• Film sowing: The hybrid is well-adapted to early conditions, starting quickly and developing a strong leaf canopy, which is vital for spring temperature fluctuations.
• Weight stability: Even at high plant densities, Nansen maintains excellent uniformity, which significantly simplifies mechanized harvesting.
• Processing: Dense flesh texture and minimal green shoulders make this variety highly profitable for industrial processing lines.

Using Israeli genetics means knowing that the data sheet translates into actual yield on the scale. It is a reliable tool for growers who value operational efficiency over luck.
