Potato NANDINA

Nandina potato is a very early table variety, characterized by high yield and excellent taste qualities. The plant is semi-upright, medium height, with large light-green leaves of intermediate to open type. Flowers of medium and large size have weak or moderate anthocyanic coloring on the inner side of the corolla. Tubers have a correct oval-round shape, yellow color with small eyes, weighing from 72 to 132 grams. Starch content in tubers is 12.8–15.0%, making them suitable for various cooking methods: boiling, baking, frying, as well as for salads and soups.

The yield of the Nandina variety varies from 146 to 322 centners per hectare, with maximum yields reaching 329 centners. Tubers' marketability is high — from 77 to 93%, and storability reaches 93%, ensuring long-term storage without quality loss. The first harvest can be obtained as early as the 45th day after emergence, allowing for early product harvest. The variety is resistant to diseases such as potato blight, golden potato cyst nematode, crinkle and mosaic, as well as leaf curl. However, it is susceptible to late blight of leaves and tubers.

The Nandina potato was developed in Germany and adapted for cultivation in various regions with moderate climates. Thanks to its resistance to a range of viral and nematode diseases, as well as high yield and excellent taste qualities, this variety is popular among farmers and early potato enthusiasts. It is suitable for cultivation in Central, Volga-Vyatka, and North Caucasus regions, ensuring stable and high-quality harvests.
