Volantis

The Volantis tomato is a mid-early indeterminate hybrid developed by German breeders of Bayer AG. The plant is strong-growing, open, with elongated internodes, which ensures ease of care and high productivity. The variety is characterized by high plasticity and low requirement for growing conditions, allowing successful cultivation in various regions, including greenhouse complexes and open areas with film coverings.

The fruits of the Volantis tomato have a plum-like, oval-shaped form with smooth, deep-red skin and distinctive gloss exceeding standard indicators. The average fruit weight is 100–120 grams. The fruit skin is dense and tough, significantly improving storability and transportability, as well as reducing susceptibility to cracking and dropping. The fruits have excellent flavor with sugar content of 4.2–4.6°Bx and remain fresh for up to 21 days after harvest.

The Volantis variety exhibits high resistance to a range of diseases, including tobacco mosaic virus (ToMV), Fusarium wilt (Fol), blossom-end rot, and other pathologies, ensuring stable yields and minimizing losses. Tomato clusters are uniform and lack joints, promoting even ripening and reducing the number of non-commercial fruits. Due to these characteristics, Volantis is an excellent choice for commercial cultivation and home gardening.
