“Our breeding activities are always attuned to trends and developments we see in the market. We stay in close contact with all parties in the chain, to keep on top of market demands,” says Miguel Angel Caballero, Cucumber Breeder.

Cucumbers from the easyQs® line are characterised by their long shelf life and their crunch, both qualities which are highly valued by supply chains and consumers. Furthermore, from a producer’s point of view, easyQs® cucumbers stand out due to their production and adaptability to different planting dates. Thanks to intensive work on vegetable breeding, resistances have gradually been incorporated to tackle various current issues, such as the CGMMV virus.
