Tomato BYYFORT

Yield Stability and Disease Resistance

For professional greenhouse vegetable growers, the choice of seed material hinges on predictability. The indeterminate hybrid 'Beaufort' from Monsanto is a cornerstone of protected cultivation, valued primarily for its robust health. In greenhouse environments where pathogen pressure is constant, this hybrid demonstrates impressive resistance to Fusarium wilt, Verticillium wilt, as well as nematodes and tomato mosaic virus.

Agronomic Performance and Management

For a grower managing this crop, understanding its developmental profile is key:

• Maturity: Reaches harvest stage within 90 days, facilitating efficient crop rotation cycles.
• Fruit Quality: Produces large, round red fruits weighing over 200 grams.
• Logistics: Exceptional transportability. The fruits are firm and resilient, ensuring they reach the market without losing their aesthetic or structural integrity.

The crop requires standard indeterminate pruning and staking. It responds well to balanced nutrient management and sets heavy, productive clusters. Operational maintenance is simplified: the plant's natural resistance reduces the need for frequent pesticide interventions, which lowers input costs and streamlines the greenhouse management protocol.

Why Professionals Choose Monsanto

As the originator, Monsanto Holland B. V. provides high seed vigor, which translates to uniform germination and consistent plant development across the entire greenhouse. Choosing 'Beaufort' means choosing a predictable result: a large, high-quality, marketable red tomato with excellent shelf life that retains its premium appearance long after harvesting.
