Convex
Mustard
The waxy type
Profile
CONVEX is characterised by a thicker cuticle and higher lipid production in the biomass. This enhances stability and promotes slower decomposition of the biomass. CONVEX is resistant to beet cyst nematodes (Heterodera schachtii) and has a low tendency to flower. CONVEX is therefore also suitable for earlier sowing dates.
- Very thick cuticle and robust plant matter
- Compact growth type
- Resistance to beet nematodes
