Melgar Strawberry Characteristics: Yield and Suitability for Wholesale

The Melgar strawberry is distinguished by its remontant nature, meaning it fruits several times a year, depending on the management of floral induction. This unique ability allows growers to harvest strawberries throughout the year, thus providing continuity in production. This characteristic makes Melgar an asset for wholesale strawberry growers looking to supply markets on a regular basis.

Melgar strawberry fruits, weighing between 19 and 21 grams, have a uniform conical shape and a bright red-orange color. These characteristics make it an attractive variety for wholesale , where quantity and firmness are priorities.


Harvest period and earliness: Continuous production all year round

This flexibility allows growers to adapt their production to market needs, thus ensuring a constant supply.

By choosing to buy Melgar strawberry plants from Fraisiverse, you benefit from a variety capable of providing fruit continuously, thus meeting the requirements of long distribution chains.


Taste and culinary uses: A versatile fruit

Although the Melgar strawberry has a medium flavor, it is still quite acceptable for wholesale .

Yield and fruit characteristics: Firm, large strawberries

The Melgar strawberry offers a high yield, with fruits weighing between 19 and 21 grams. Their conical shape and firmness make them ideal for packaging, transport and wholesale . Thanks to their resistance, Melgar fruits maintain their quality even after a long period of transport, thus meeting the requirements of wholesale markets and distribution chains.

With its ability to produce high volumes of fruit throughout the year, Melgar is a very competitive variety for growers looking to maximize their production.


Disease resistance: An asset for producers

The Melgar strawberry also stands out for its tolerance to common strawberry diseases , which helps reduce the costs of pest control treatments. This natural resistance is an asset for producers looking to minimize chemical interventions while maintaining healthy and profitable production.

However, it is important to monitor crops for possible pests such as thrips or weevils, and to adopt preventive measures if necessary.
