Hybrid of white cabbage Snezhinka F₁ – the prospects of cultivation for the organic production

Abstract

Relevance. Presently, for the organic Cole crop cultivation are usually used early-ripe sorts and hybrids of Russian originator firms. There is a problem with middle and lateripe sorts and hybrids, which do not satisfy with the requirements of biological ripeness and weight of cabbage, presenting by customers. That is why hybrid Snezhinka F1 of VNIISSOK selection is of practical interest; in 2008 yr. it was shown that it is perspective to use it in the conveyer after early-ripe sorts in organic cultivation.Materials and methods. The research has done on hybrid Snezhinka F1 with comparison of hybrid Cuisor F1 (originator Syngenta seeds B.V.). The technology was maximal close to the technology of organic cultivation. The tests provided by triple repetition. The accounts and data processing were carried out by standard methods.Results. As a result, after researches of middle-ripe cabbage hybrid Snezhinka F1 was found that it satisfies the requirements of customers. Firstly, the cabbage does not contain any pesticides. Secondly, the formation of its biochemical composition proceeds without mineral fertilizers, by using the natural soil fertility. Thirdly, and it is very important by these biometric values, the cabbage reaches the phase of biological ripe at the same level or even above the popular hybrid Cuisor F1.
