Pyrenochaeta terrestris) and intermediate resistance to Fusarium basal plate rot (Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cepae). SV7030NS is suitable for direct seeding as well as seedling transplants.

SPECIAL VARIETAL REQUIREMENTS

  • SV7030NS has a vigorous root system – nitrogen-based fertilisers late in the growing season should be strictly managed
  • Red onions need to be cured properly in order to develop the distinctive red internal colour – all red onion varieties have a white flesh colour when recently harvested or when used as fresh green (not cured) onions
  • Contact a Sakata area representative for a local onion sowing guide
