Onion Benefis

The Benefis onion is a mid-season bulb variety characterized by high yield and excellent taste qualities. The bulbs have a round shape with yellow or dark bronze outer scales and white, tender flesh inside. Bulb weight ranges from 45 to 80 grams, while dry matter content reaches 10%, ensuring good density and flavor properties. This variety is versatile in application: it can be used fresh for salads, as well as for canning and processing. The plant forms a powerful root system and upright leaves with a waxy coating, which promotes good development and disease resistance. Benefis is distinguished by high winter hardiness and resistance to various diseases, making it a reliable choice for open-field cultivation. The recommended planting density is 4-8 grams of seeds per square meter, which allows for a yield of up to 4.6 kg per square meter or 100-130 tons per hectare. The bulbs have thick skin and a thin neck, ensuring good transportability and long-term storage—up to 6 to 8 months. Due to these qualities, the variety is suitable for long-term storage and marketing in fresh form. The Benefis variety is characterized by a balanced chemical composition: it contains about 3% total sugar and 50 mg of ascorbic acid per 100 grams of raw material, increasing its nutritional value. The average vegetation period is 115-125 days, allowing for harvest planning at optimal times. Benefis onion is an excellent choice for farmers and gardeners seeking a high-quality, tasty, and resilient product with high yield potential and a long shelf life.
