Sea buckthorn Reliable

Why «Nadiina» is a pro choice

The «Nadiina» sea buckthorn, a breeding achievement of the NAAS Institute of Horticulture, addresses the primary challenge of industrial and homestead cultivation: harvesting. The absence of thorns on the shoots changes the farm's economics significantly, as manual picking time is drastically reduced, and the risk of injury to workers is eliminated.

Practical use scenarios

• Commercial orchards: The variety is ideal for those targeting the fresh produce market. The firm skin and balanced sweet-and-sour taste make «Nadiina» highly transportable and market-ready.
• Processing and freezing: Due to its versatile nature, the cultivar is excellent for intense processing, including juices, oils, and jams. The berries withstand blast freezing well, retaining their structure upon thawing.
• Ornamental landscaping: Given the high ornamental value of the shrub, it is effectively used in garden design to create hedges that combine aesthetic appeal with a functional harvest.

In field conditions, «Nadiina» demonstrates stable yields. Unlike wild forms, this variety is predictable in maintenance: the lack of thorns allows for proper pruning and canopy shaping without the need for special protective gloves, which simplifies agrotechnical operations considerably.
