“We grow DSP 7054,” says Bart. “That variety has performed very well in production and quality this year. But next to DSP 7054 we have been testing Raptor for 2 years on a section of the greenhouse in Honselersdijk. We have achieved good results with Raptor. The most important advantage is the higher average fruit weight, which means that more fruits fall into the more expensive grades. Just like DSP 7054, the quality of the fruit is very good. The breed has good speed and the fruits are strong against Botrytis. In short: a breed with a lot of potential!”
