Field Experience with 'Kankan' Onion

When selecting seeds for industrial-scale processing, predictability is our primary goal. Working with the 'Kankan' variety from 'Vashe Khozyaystvo' has proven to be a reliable choice for producers who prioritize high-quality standards for their raw materials.

Field Performance and Mechanization

For us, the priority was selecting an onion variety that can withstand mechanical harvesting. 'Kankan' delivers excellent bulb uniformity, which is critical for efficient sorting and subsequent processing. The outer scales are robust, effectively reducing the damage rate during the use of harvesters and automated warehouse equipment.

Key Advantages for Processing

In the processing sector, we value this variety for several functional reasons:

• Consistent yield of high-quality produce after peeling.
• Resistance to mechanical impact: bulbs do not crack during bin transportation.
• Dense flesh structure that retains quality during storage before it reaches the processing line.

Cultivation does not require complex or unusual protocols; standard protection and irrigation schemes yield stable results. We have observed that when proper planting density is maintained, 'Kankan' performs well during the drying process, significantly lowering the risk of rot during long-term storage.
