Potato Borodinsky Rose

A resilient staple for sustainable yields

«Borodianska Rozheva» is a mid-early table potato variety developed by the Institute of Potato Research of the NAAS of Ukraine. Designed to thrive in local conditions, this variety balances a short vegetation period (65–75 days) with excellent field resistance to common threats, ensuring a harvest before the late-summer moisture challenges.

Why it stands out

Unlike many demanding hybrids, this variety is characterized by high resilience to major potato diseases. It demonstrates strong resistance against potato cancer, common scab, and macrosporiosis. Furthermore, its ability to withstand viral diseases, including leaf roll virus, significantly reduces the need for frequent pesticide applications, making it an economically viable option for smaller farms.
