Potato Falcon

Consistent Yields from Danish Breeding Expertise

The «Falcon» variety from Danespo A/S stands out as a top-tier choice for growers who prioritize reliability and market quality in table potatoes. Unlike many varieties that focus solely on flavor, Falcon delivers a robust package of field resistance against a wide range of fungal pathogens, including septoria, fusarium, phoma, and various leaf spots.

Agronomic Strengths

The true value of Falcon lies in its natural resilience. In seasons with high humidity and pressure from powdery mildew or cercospora, this variety maintains its health, allowing growers to optimize their fungicide programs and reduce chemical usage. This is where the Danish breeding legacy truly shines — providing a variety that works for the farmer rather than against them.
