T 97082 F1

Tomato T 97082 F1, also known as Kvalitet, is an early semi-determinate hybrid developed by the Dutch company Syngenta Seeds. This variety features a short vegetation period — 65-70 days from seedling transplanting — allowing for harvest as early as late summer or early autumn. The plant is adapted to various climatic conditions and can be successfully grown both in open ground and in plastic greenhouses, enabling year-round production. The hybrid is well-suited for spring-summer and summer-autumn crop rotations and can thrive on heavy soils, demonstrating high resistance to most common tomato diseases. The fruits of tomato T 97082 F1 have a round-oval shape with a ribbed surface and a deep red color. The average fruit weight ranges from 200 to 250 grams, making them attractive for fresh market sales. High flesh density ensures good appearance retention during transport and storage, while resistance to cracking and spotting minimizes losses during harvest. These characteristics make this tomato versatile for fresh use — in salads, vegetable cuts, and for juice production. The plant exhibits strong, productive growth with a robust leaf canopy and well-defined apical growth point, preventing premature flowering and facilitating bush formation. Moderate internode spacing promotes good fruit set and ripening even under challenging growing conditions, ensuring stable high yields. The hybrid seeds have high germination rates — approximately 65-70% for 250 seeds per packet — further confirming its reliability and effectiveness for farmers.
