DRK 936

Stability and Protection: The Potential of DRK 936 Hybrid

American breeding from Monsanto has long established itself as a benchmark for reliability in industrial vegetable production. The DRK 936 tomato hybrid is a solution for farmers who prioritize predictable results in intensive farming environments. Thanks to its semi-determinate growth habit, the plant efficiently balances energy between vegetative mass and fruit set, which is crucial for achieving the projected yield of 70–100 tons per hectare.

A Biological Shield

A key feature of the DRK 936 is its comprehensive resistance to pathogens that most frequently undermine the profitability of the tomato business:

• Complete protection against the classic set of wilt diseases: Fusarium and Verticillium.
• Adaptation to regions with high risk of viral attacks, including TMV (Tobacco Mosaic Virus).
• Genetic tolerance to nematodes, allowing for cultivation in crop rotations with high soil pressure.

Agronomic Features and Market Positioning

With a maturation period of 100–120 days, this hybrid falls into the mid-season category, which is optimal for both the processing industry and the fresh market. The 60–80 gram fruit has a distinctive pink color, and its high density makes it ideal for long-distance transportation. This seed material from Monsanto is tailored for the professional segment, where uniformity of every batch is as critical as fruit size. By choosing the DRK 936, farmers gain a tool that minimizes the chemical burden on their fields, thanks to the plant's natural resistance to diseases.
