The company “Agroproduction,” which is part of the PAEK group of companies and operates under the brand “Smakota,” has begun a new agricultural season by planting ultra-early cabbage. In 2026, the company implemented the sowing of the Lusima F1 hybrid from Rijk Zwaan, allocating 50 hectares of agricultural land for this crop.

Growing Features and Technological Solutions
Sowing seeds into trays started on January 14, and just five days later, agronomists received the first sprouts. To grow the seedlings, specialists maintain a temperature of 20 °C, using alternative energy sources. This approach allows for optimal conditions for plant development even under challenging production circumstances.
“Step by step, we are laying the foundation for the future harvest – we are working towards results even in difficult conditions.”
Harvesting and Sales Plans
The Lusima F1 cabbage hybrid is noted for its quick maturation period — from 45 to 50 days after transplanting the seedlings. Due to these characteristics, the harvest is planned for late April to early May 2026. Cabbage heads, reaching weights from 0.8 to 1.5 kg, will be sold in the fresh market under the “Smakota” brand.
Thus, the company continues to implement modern agricultural technologies and strengthen its position in the vegetable market, providing consumers with high-quality early products.
