STRAWBERRY PLANTS
One of the main aspects to consider in order to reach high levels of production in strawberry cultivation is, without a doubt, to have the genetic quality of the plants, which determines the yield potential of the crop. The main varieties planted since the development of commercial fruit growing in Chile were developed by the genetic improvement program of the University of California (USA), currently considered the most commercially important program in the world.
Agrícola Llahuén, with more than 50 years of experience as a strawberry nurseryman in Chile, has a license for varieties from the University of California, which are propagated under a strict production protocol that ensures both varietal safety and the sanitary quality of its plants. , which has allowed it to position itself as a leader among national producers and major world markets.
VARIETIES
NEUTRAL DAY
Group of varieties that have a low response to the photoperiod (physiological response throughout the day), that is, they only require adequate temperatures (above 12°C in the soil) to develop flower buds. They present a more homogeneous production and fruit caliber throughout the season.
Varieties with very good suitability for the fresh market, which also represent an excellent commercial alternative for off-season production through forced cultivation (tunnel and micro-tunnel).
SHORT DAY
Group of varieties that respond to the photoperiod (physiological response to the length of the day), that is, they require short days (less than 14 hours of light) to develop flower buds. Varieties that generally have two harvest periods In the season.
