CONVEX
Mustard
The waxy type
Profile
CONVEX has a very thick cuticle and more lipids than other oil radish varieties. This promotes and nourishes soil life. CONVEX is resistant to beet cyst nematodes (Heterodera schachtii Cat. 2) and is one of the few varieties with a low flowering tendency (Cat. 2). CONVEX is therefore also suitable for earlier sowing dates.
- Very thick cuticle, thus more lipids to feed soil life
- Well adapted to early sowings
- Resistance to beet nematodes
