Tomato PROGRESHN

Stability and Control in Greenhouse Tomato Production

The 'Progression' tomato from the Dutch breeding company Nunhems is a choice for professionals focused on continuous production and predictable results. Its indeterminate plant type makes it an ideal candidate for film and glass greenhouses, where efficient vertical space management and high output per square meter are critical.

Use Cases

This variety is often selected by farming operations specializing in mid-to-late season supply. With a ripening period of 120–130 days, 'Progression' fills a vital market niche when early hybrids finish fruiting, and the market demands high-quality produce with excellent commercial appeal.

• Fruit Handling: The flat-round fruits, weighing 40–60 grams, are perfect for the 'cherry' or 'cocktail' tomato segment. They feature high transportability and resistance to cracking, enabling long-distance logistics without compromising shelf appeal.
• Investment Protection: Nunhems' breeding expertise here prioritizes biosafety. In enclosed greenhouse environments where disease pressure builds rapidly, high resistance to fusarium wilt, verticillium wilt, cladosporium leaf mold, and tomato mosaic virus saves agronomists from excessive fungicide treatments.

Crop Economics

When adhering to correct agrotechnology and cluster pruning, the hybrid's yield reaches 70–100 tons per hectare. This is a significant figure for the professional sector, requiring strict adherence to fertilizer and irrigation schedules. The plant, with its robust leaf canopy, requires diligent pruning and de-suckering to ensure the plant's energy is directed toward fruit development rather than excessive vegetative growth.

For the farmer, this is a reliable tool: clear developmental dynamics, predictable fruit weight, and protection against major tomato diseases make 'Progression' a smart capital investment in professional vegetable farming.
