NAFIDA

A Reliable Harvest Without Surprises

Working with the 'Nafida' variety from Germicopa Breeding, you immediately notice its predictability. This potato is a workhorse for those who want to avoid constant disease management throughout the season. French breeding proves its worth here: resistance to golden potato nematode and potato wart allows you to plant this crop in fields where other varieties have long since failed.

Field Experience and Agronomics

In the field, 'Nafida' shows excellent dynamics: the first tubers are ready for harvest as early as 55–65 days after planting. For a table potato, this is an ideal window—allowing you to hit the market early and store your reserves comfortably. The tubers are uniform, weighing between 50 and 130 grams, with smooth yellow skin and equally appetizing flesh. Maintenance is straightforward: the medium eye depth simplifies both manual cleaning and mechanical sorting.

• Protection: High immunity to late blight and viral mosaics significantly reduces chemical treatment costs.
• Taste: With a sensory rating of 5.0, this potato holds its structure well during boiling and does not darken.
• Stability: Starch content ranging from 12% to 16% makes the variety versatile in the kitchen, perfect for both frying and mashing.

If you are growing 'Nafida' on a large scale, keep an eye on crop rotation. Despite its robust nature, the variety thrives with high-quality care and balanced fertilization, which pays off in the marketable appearance of the tubers. This is a classic case of European genetics working for the farmer's profit, minimizing the risks of crop loss from common potato diseases.
