Tomato BRAKAR

Tomato 'Brakar' by Niisok: High Performance for Protected Ground

In the professional vegetable growing industry, genetic selection is the cornerstone of profit. The 'Brakar' variety, developed by Niisok, is an indeterminate tomato designed to maximize efficiency in greenhouses and tunnel structures. It fits perfectly into the portfolio of growers who prioritize consistent fruit quality and robust plant health.

The primary advantage of the 'Brakar' variety is its high adaptive capacity. The Niisok breeding program focused on creating a plant that can withstand the high-pressure environment of greenhouse cultivation, reducing the need for aggressive chemical treatments while ensuring steady production.

Phytopathological Resistance

One of the strongest assets of 'Brakar' is its genetic resistance package. The variety is specifically bred to combat the most devastating pathogens in greenhouse conditions:

• Fusarium and Verticillium wilt;
• Cladosporium (leaf mold);
• Tomato Mosaic Virus (ToMV) and other viral complexes;
• Powdery mildew.

This level of resilience makes it a reliable choice for commercial farms looking to mitigate risks associated with recurring soil-borne and airborne diseases.

Fruit Characteristics and Market Logistics

With a maturation period of up to 90 days, 'Brakar' is an efficient mid-early option. The fruits weigh between 100 and 150 grams and exhibit both plum-like and flat-round shapes, providing a versatile presentation. The dry matter content of 5.50–6.00% gives the fruits a firm texture, which is a critical factor for logistics.

Excellent transportability allows these tomatoes to maintain their aesthetic appeal—ranging from red to deep brown tones—even after long-distance distribution. By choosing Niisok's seeds, growers invest in a variety that meets both the agronomic requirements for yield and the retail market's demand for durability and visual consistency.
