Onion Baikal

High-Yield Bunching Onion from Moravoseed

The 'Baikal' variety from the Czech breeding company Moravoseed is a top choice for commercial vegetable growers specializing in high-quality scallions. Unlike traditional bulb-producing varieties, 'Baikal' is specifically developed to deliver professional-grade, salad-quality green stalks.

Performance and Agronomics

This variety is highly productive, capable of yields exceeding 100 tons per hectare. With a growth cycle of 100–110 days, the plants form a robust, vigorous leaf structure perfectly suited for manual harvesting. A key feature is the high dry matter content (16–18%), which provides excellent structural integrity and extended storage potential. When properly stored, the harvested product maintains its marketability for 9–10 months, providing growers with a significant competitive advantage in the off-season market.

Why Growers Choose Baikal

• Extended Market Access: Exceptional shelf life of up to 10 months allows for flexible marketing strategies.
• Versatility: Suitable for both fresh market sales and processing purposes.
• Czech Breeding Excellence: Moravoseed genetics ensure high germination vigor and uniform field stands.

For operations looking to balance volume with storage performance, 'Baikal' offers a straightforward cultivation path. While the variety is resilient, it responds well to intensive fertilization programs, allowing farmers to push for maximum genetic potential under controlled conditions.
