Cora Seeds is playing host to a range of stakeholders and industry media at its annual event showcasing its flagship varieties and offering insights into their qualities - of interest to both growers and consumers. The three-day event will also be a platform for discussion, feature in-depth scientific analysis of the most promising experimental lines and offer a preview of the latest varietal innovations.
The Open Days are an opportunity for Cora Seeds to meet with partners, share results and strengthen relationships. The 2025 edition will focus on innovation, a core value of the company's philosophy. Specifically, new commercial and experimental varieties will be presented that have been developed to meet climate challenges and satisfy the needs of both domestic and international markets.
The spotlight will be on Cora Seeds' leading products: watermelons, onions and indeterminate tomatoes, with time also dedicated to other key varieties including determinate tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, eggplants, melons, zucchini and carrots.
