Tomato Prado

Focus on Aesthetics and Shelf Life

The «Prado» tomato from the breeding company Greenomica is the choice for growers seeking a balance between visual appeal and the ability to withstand logistical challenges. In today's market, where the appearance of produce often dictates pricing, this variety carves out a niche as professional material for the fresh market, geared toward long-term distribution.

Agronomic Profile and Productivity

This tomato is an early-maturing crop: from planting to the first harvest, it takes less than 90 days. Such dynamics allow for planned, conveyor-style deliveries and efficient greenhouse space management. The cylindrical shape of the fruit has become the hybrid's trademark, simplifying packing into standard containers and minimizing transit damage.

A key feature of «Prado» is its impressive yield, reaching 50–70 tons per hectare. Fruit weight varies between 150–200 grams, the «gold standard» for retail chains where consumers prefer medium-sized tomatoes. The color is particularly noteworthy—the delicate creamy hue helps the product stand out on shelves among traditional red varieties, enabling a premium market position.

Transportability as a Priority

The main issue with greenhouse tomatoes is the rapid loss of marketability after harvest. «Prado» solves this with its dense skin and balanced flesh structure. The ability to maintain freshness for over 30 days post-harvest makes it one of the most viable varieties for shipments to remote regions or for retail cycles that require extended storage without compromising flavor.

For producers working with Greenomica, this variety serves as a tool to reduce waste. Stable geometry and high fruit density decrease the percentage of culls during sorting, ensuring a predictable economic outcome by the end of the season.
