Nunhems Iceberg: A solution for all - Firstkin*

At BASF, we are always looking for ways to create a solution for all parties involved in the value chain. Changes in climate, technology, and market needs inspire us to develop genetics that meet the needs of today and tomorrow. This enables us to create improved varieties by using state-of-the-art breeding methods and by working closely with partners throughout the vegetable supply chain.

 

Liberkin*, Sprinkin*, and Firstkin* are the latest varieties in our range of iceberg lettuces that guarantee a very uniform and stable crop. This time, we zoom in on Firstkin*, previously known as NUN 00224. Account manager Stefan Hermans is happy to tell you more about it. Watch the video.

“With new machines being used all over the world, for harvesting, but also for packaging, uniformity and crop stability have become even more important than before.”
