Pepper Ibiza

Technical Profile of the "Ibiza" Hybrid

The breeding of the "Ibiza" hybrid, developed by Ooo Ssts Rostovskij in collaboration with the Federal Rostov Agricultural Research Center and Agrofirma Poisk, represents a precise approach to open-field vegetable cultivation. The engineering of this hybrid focuses on optimizing the biological development cycle and the structural morphology of the fruit.

Growth and Maturity Parameters

The vegetation period spans 65 to 75 days. This mid-early maturation cycle is a strategic advantage for commercial growers, allowing for consistent scheduling of harvest operations. The predictability of the maturity phase is essential for mitigating risks associated with environmental factors and ensuring high-quality yield before peak stress conditions occur.

Fruit Morphology and Structural Efficiency

The defining trait of the "Ibiza" hybrid is its fruit architecture. The conical shape, combined with a 4-lobed internal structure, provides several technical benefits for large-scale production:

• Biomass Distribution: With an average fruit mass of 160–190 grams, the plant demonstrates efficient nutrient allocation. The 4-lobed structure indicates optimal development, ensuring a uniform mass distribution.
• Post-Harvest Handling: The structural integrity and geometric consistency make the fruit highly suitable for standardized packaging and automated sorting lines, reducing mechanical losses.
• Tissue Density: The selection process focused on maintaining wall thickness at a high weight, ensuring that the fruits withstand transport and storage well.

The hybrid released by Ooo Ssts Rostovskij serves as a professional-grade tool for agricultural operations. Its stability in fruit shape and mass is the result of focused breeding efforts to achieve a balance between yield quantity and commercial quality requirements for the open-field segment.
