Tomato Asano

Optimizing Greenhouse Yields: Working with «Asano»

For any professional greenhouse operator, the choice of seed genetics is a balance between yield consistency and maintenance costs. The indeterminate «Asano» tomato by Ikasido Global Group B.V is a robust solution that rewards precision. While the plant requires standard training and pruning, its growth cycle is remarkably predictable, hitting maturation within the 90–100 day window.

Disease Resistance and Farm Economics

The standout feature of this Igor Shcevchenko-bred variety is its exceptional disease resistance profile. Managing greenhouse climate is a constant challenge, but «Asano» mitigates risks effectively. Its genetic resistance to Fusarium wilt, Verticillium wilt, Tobacco mosaic virus, and leaf mold reduces the need for heavy fungicide application.

Handling and Marketability

At an average weight of over 200 grams, the «Asano» fruit is perfectly sized for retail demand. The flat-round shape is uniform and easy to pack, which is critical for cold chain logistics. Most importantly, the skin integrity is superior. For a grower looking for a high-value pink variety that can handle the rigors of modern supply chains, this hybrid offers excellent durability and commercial reliability.
