SV7030NS is a mid-maturing, short day, red onion variety. SV7030NS produces firm, uniform, globe-shaped bulbs with neat, thin necks. SV7030NS’s bulbs have two tough outers scale leaves each with an attractive shiny, deep red to purple colour. SV7030NS is a vigorous grower with high yield potential and good bolting tolerance.  In addition, SV7030NS has a high resistance to the soil-borne fungal pathogen, pink root (Phoma terrestris syn. Pyrenochaeta terrestris) and intermediate resistance to Fusarium basal plate rot (Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cepae). SV7030NS is suitable for direct seeding as well as seedling transplants.

SPECIAL VARIETAL REQUIREMENTS

  • SV7030NS has a vigorous root system – nitrogen-based fertilisers late in the growing season should be strictly managed
  • Red onions need to be cured properly in order to develop the distinctive red internal colour – all red onion varieties have a white flesh colour when recently harvested or when used as fresh green (not cured) onions
  • Contact a Sakata area representative for a local onion sowing guide
