Neoterra Agro is running an open-field live demonstration trial programme in Loitokitok, Kenya — putting selected F1 hybrid varieties under real tropical field pressure so farmers, growers and partners can see the difference before any commercial roll-out.
Partner on the trials →100% open field. Tropical Kenya. Live demonstration plots plus coded test blocks — with a clear decision at the end of every cycle.
Trial site: Neoterra's Loitokitok / Kimana demonstration farm, Kajiado County. Varieties advance only on field evidence — no claims we can't show in the ground.
Neoterra Agro Limited runs a structured live demonstration trial programme — sourcing quality F1 hybrid material and proving each variety on Kenyan soil before any commercial roll-out. Results are recorded and reported transparently to partners and growers.
Material is chosen for open-field performance, tropical disease pressure, post-harvest strength and visible, measurable field proof.
Bred for direct open-field performance under high light, heat, rain, wind and practical farmer management.
Priority on resistance to local blights, wilts, mildews, mosaic viruses, rusts, anthracnose and nematode pressure.
Shelf life, firmness, thick skin or rind, transport tolerance and quality retention after harvest.
Measurable differences in vigour, uniformity, fruit quality, yield, marketability and resilience.
Selected open-field F1 hybrid lines for our demonstration plots — each planted for visible comparison before any scale-up.
Tight necks, thick waxy skins, long storage — rain-fed and irrigated open field.
Bacterial & Fusarium wilt and nematode resistance; heavy canopy against sunscald.
Thick fruit walls, stocky frame, sunscald and wind tolerance.
Strong resistance to tropical Late Blight (Phytophthora infestans).
Thick, tough, sunburn-resistant rind for soil contact and transit.
High Brix (14–16%) with powdery and downy mildew resistance.
Firm skin, crisp, bitter-free, with elite mildew resistance.
Concentrated pod set; Bean Rust and Anthracnose resistance.
High dry matter, tough rind, long field-holding capacity.
Lodging resistance, drought avoidance and MLND resistance.
Heat-tolerant, late-flowering — more leaf flushes per cycle.
Samples sized for coded test plots, comparison blocks and reserve stock — planted side by side under identical open-field conditions.
Farmer observation days, crop records, harvest quality and end-of-cycle scoring on vigour, yield, disease and marketability.
A line moves forward only when field evidence and farmer / partner feedback support it. Everything else is retested or dropped.
To keep each plot honest and traceable, Neoterra requests the following for every variety entered.
This request is intentionally selective — technically suitable F1 hybrid material that can perform credibly in open-field tropical conditions, not a broad catalogue transfer.
Partners, growers and seed partners are welcome to visit the demonstration plots, review the field records, or line up supply of the varieties that prove themselves.
