Have you ever thought of a plate
of mixed Red, Yellow and Orange peppers? During the Expo
Culiacan, which will take place on February 6th-9th, Zeraim
Mexico will make this come true.
Jose Luis Gonzales Beristain, America Desk Manager: "Thanks to
the vision of many, Zeraim Gedera started a development program
in association with the Faculty of Agriculture at Rehovot,
Israel, headed by Dr. Yoni Elkind".
 Zeraim Gedera is
engaged in the development of top quality hybrid vegetables and
fruits worldwide. Attentive to its customers, the Company
focuses on breeding California type peppers, ranging in size
from small to extra-large and in a variety of colors. Zeraim
Gedera's breeding program concentrates on adapting suitable
varieties for growing in different regions around the globe.
Mr. Beristain: "Our focus is on developing pepper varieties
which have good fruit setting under high temperature conditions
during the early growth period, followed by winter conditions
and through to the late winter when the fruit is ready for
picking. Our varieties can be grown as bush with multiple stems
or with 2-3 stems controlled by pruning. These varieties are
vigorous, with high yield (up to 30% higher than their
competitors) and are tolerant to TSWV, ToMV races 0,1,2,3 and
4".
Rita, Maria and Rosalia are the new generation varieties. Red at
harvest, they all have special features such as early ripening,
short internodes and TSWV tolerance.
