Cucumber varieties

More taste, less waste

How can we make cucumbers that are ready for the future? Great for each market, with great taste and minimum waste? For many years, we are breeding successfully in all cucumber typologies in all conditions, from low to high tech, in soil or substrate cultivation. Variety selection is based on yield, quality and above all adaptability to long growing seasons and the different climate zones and weather patterns. Inspired by our growers, and supported by the most advanced technology and tools, our teams develop resistances needed in the market.

Our program is very successful, because it is developed in cooperation with local growers and the commercial team. This way of working helps us to come with innovative answers to different needs. Cucumbers are in high demand everywhere, yet each situation offers unique challenges all through the chain, from the field to the consumer.

We pride ourselves on color and consistency in production, even in markets where competitors may offer faster results. Our innovative approach to cucumber breeding culminates in a 4-to-5-year journey from seed to commercial variety: great-looking and great-tasting cucumbers that are very stable in production and offer a long shelf life. More taste, less waste!
