Different varieties for different usage

Several sea buckthorn varieties are present in our plantation. They have been selected to offer fruit with various properties. The properties and nutritional values of the fruits depend on the variety, the time of harvest and the climatic conditions of the year. Every year we make specific determinations of bioactive compounds in the fruit for each variety, at accredited international laboratories.

CLARA

It grows in the form of a tree, with a thick crown, a spur type, it breeds on annual branches and on anticipated growths. Erect annual branches, quite thick, moderately thorny, with 4-6cm spines. Elliptic Leaves, 3-5cm long, slightly pubescent on the lower face. Large, oblique, orange-yellow fruit with succulent pulp, thin skirt and 4-6mm of pedicel.
- Physicochemical determinations: mass of 100 grains 64.1g, pulp + juice 67%, skins 10.3%, seeds 22.7%, sugar 11.3�� Brix, total acidity (expressed as tartaric acid) 4.52% , Vit. C 260mg / 100g juice, carotenoids 16.9mg / 100g juice, total oil: 5.3%.
- Productivity: 22,5 to / ha in year V, irrigated, on the planting scheme 3,5x1m.
- Production destination: universal, fresh consumption and processing.
- Special merits: very good freezing resistance, easy accept mowing technology, good crown recovery capacity, precocity and high production, resistant to fusariosis.

CORA

It grows in the shape of a tree, with a strong, high crown, it breeds on annual branches and on anticipated shoots. Annual erect branches, moderately thick, with rare spines 3-5cm long. Elliptic leaves, 3-5cm long, pubescent on the lower face. Relatively large, elliptic, orange yellow, very succulent fruits, elastic skin and resistance and 5-6mm long pedicel.
- Physicochemical determinations: mass of 100 grains 72.3g, pulp + juice 65%, skins 10.9%, seeds 24.1%, sugar 10.3�� Brix, total acidity (expressed as tartaric acid) 4.15% , Vit. C 240 mg / 100g juice, carotenoids 22.5 mg / 100g juice, total oil: 5.2%.
- Productivity: 27,7 to / ha in year V, irrigated, on planting scheme 3,5x1m.
- Production destination: universal, fresh consumption and processing.
- Special merits: the late ripe prolongs the harvesting period and reduces the thermal spread to freezing with considerable positive financial effects. Resistant to diseases and pests.

MARA

It grows in the form of a tree, with a high crown, airy, breeds on annual branches and on anticipated growths. Mainly erect annual branches, rather thick, slightly spiny, with 3-5 cm of spines. Elliptical leaves, 3-5cm long, silver, pubescent on the lower face. Suitable fruits of large, elliptical, dark orange, with juicy pulp, elastic skin and resistance and pedicel of 5-6mm.
