Sweet pepper Dukato F1 is a medium-early hybrid developed by the Dutch breeding company Hazera, intended for cultivation both in open ground and in protected environments. The plant features a strong, well-developed, and densely foliated bush, which contributes to high productivity and resistance to adverse growing conditions. The hybrid demonstrates resistance to common diseases affecting solanaceous crops, including Tobacco Mosaic Virus (TMV), Potato Virus Y (PVY), and other pathogens, ensuring a stable yield.

The fruits of Dukato F1 pepper have a cube-like shape with four chambers, reaching 16-18 cm in length and 8.5-9.5 cm in diameter, with a wall thickness of up to 10 mm. The average fruit weight ranges from 250 to 280 grams. In technical maturity, the fruits are dark green, and in biological maturity, they turn bright red, indicating full ripeness and high nutrient content. The pepper has a sweet and refreshing taste, making it suitable for fresh consumption, as well as for thermal processing and canning.

The Dukato F1 hybrid exhibits good transportability and the ability to be stored for long periods without loss of quality, allowing its use for both local consumption and distant markets. Due to its characteristics and disease resistance, this variety is an excellent choice for farmers and gardeners aiming to achieve a high-quality and stable yield of sweet pepper.
