Volna

Reliable Yields for Open-Field Production

The «Volna» tomato variety from Vilmorin-Mikado is a strategic choice for commercial growers who prioritize consistent results and shelf-life. This determinate hybrid is specifically engineered for open-field conditions, ensuring robust performance even in fluctuating environments.

Resilience and Disease Management

The core advantage of «Volna» lies in its strong genetic profile. It offers verified resistance to common soil-borne pathogens, including Verticillium wilt, Fusarium wilt, and Stemphylium. This resistance profile is crucial for practical farm management, as it reduces the need for frequent chemical fungicide applications, lowering production costs while securing the yield against common crop failures.

Product Quality and Logistics

Producing flat-round fruits weighing 150–200 grams, «Volna» meets the market demand for uniform, high-quality red tomatoes. With a maturity period of 100–120 days, it is well-suited for medium-late production cycles. The physical density of the fruit ensures excellent transportability, allowing growers to ship their harvest over long distances without compromising quality or appearance, which is essential for fresh-market distribution.
