Onion Dora

Optimized for Industrial Processing

Dora, a hybrid variety from the Turkish seed producer Bayram Tohum, is engineered specifically for commercial operations focused on industrial processing. This hybrid is the result of focused breeding aimed at meeting the technical requirements of large-scale vegetable cutting, drying, and preserving facilities.

Technical Advantages

The standout feature of the Dora hybrid is its resistance to Pink Root disease. In fields where soil pathogens often limit crop rotation or yield, Dora offers a reliable solution. Its distinct round-cuboid bulb shape is perfectly suited for high-speed industrial peeling and slicing lines, significantly reducing mechanical waste during the processing stage.

Operational Scenarios

• Processing Efficiency: With its white, succulent inner scales and compact texture, Dora is a preferred choice for dehydrating and canning industries.
• Extended Shelf Life: The hybrid shows excellent storage stability, maintaining quality for 6 to 7 months post-harvest. This longevity allows processors to extend their operating season far beyond the initial harvest window.
• Mechanical Handling: As a long-day variety, Dora develops a robust bulb with firm bronze outer scales. This "toughness" is crucial for modern farms utilizing mechanized harvesting, ensuring that the bulbs withstand conveyor transport and bulk storage without premature spoilage.

For growers supplying the food processing industry, choosing Bayram Tohum’s Dora means prioritizing consistency and high output quality, even in environments challenged by soil-borne fungal issues.
