Lettuce METALIA

Metalia salad variety is an early-maturing hybrid lettuce variety, distinguished by its large, dense, dark green, round-flat head weighing over 600 grams. The lettuce leaves have a rich green color without anthocyanin pigmentation, giving the product an attractive appearance. Due to its dense structure, the salad maintains its shape and quality well during transportation and storage.

This variety is characterized by high resistance to unfavorable conditions, including high temperatures and leaf burn, making it particularly valuable for cultivation in southern and hot regions. Metalia also exhibits high resistance to downy mildew, reducing the risk of disease and increasing yield. The variety is suitable for open-field cultivation and demonstrates maximum productivity in a hot climate.

Metalia is versatile in application: it is excellent for both fresh market sales and processing. Thanks to its qualities and disease resistance, this salad is a reliable choice for farmers seeking a stable and high-quality harvest. Seeds of the variety are produced by the Nunhems brand of BASF, guaranteeing high quality of the planting material.
