Onion Bosko F1

Built for Industrial Processing

Bosco F1 from the Swiss breeder Syngenta is a yellow onion hybrid engineered specifically for commercial growers who prioritize high-volume production and processing efficiency. In an era where margin depends on consistency and yield per hectare, this hybrid stands out by providing a reliable link between the field and the processing plant.

Key Production Metrics

The standout feature of Bosco F1 is its massive yield potential, capable of exceeding 100 tonnes per hectare. Designed with modern agriculture in mind, the hybrid is perfectly suited for mechanized harvesting, although it performs equally well under manual picking conditions. This flexibility ensures that regardless of your farm's technological setup, you can manage harvest timelines effectively.

• Maturity: 120–130 days, offering a predictable schedule for your logistics.
• Storage: Keeps its market quality for 6–7 months, providing a competitive edge in market timing.
• Dry Matter: With 13–15% dry matter content, it is an excellent candidate for dehydration and industrial food processing.

Agronomic Resilience

Syngenta’s breeding program for Bosco F1 focuses on biological security. The hybrid displays strong resistance to pink root rot, which is a major benefit in fields with high pathogen pressure. It also shows a solid defensive profile against Alternaria, allowing growers to manage their fungicide programs more efficiently without compromising the crop. Visually, the bulbs are uniform, round, and feature an attractive deep brown skin, while maintaining a firm white interior structure.

Why choose Bosco F1?

Bosco F1 is the optimal choice for large-scale operations supplying the processing industry or wholesale markets. Its combination of high tonnage, machine-harvest capabilities, and long-term storage viability makes it a professional-grade asset that yields predictable results for those managing intensive farming cycles.
