CapGen Seeds strengthens its position in the horticultural market with a varietal catalog designed to meet the new demands of national and international distribution. Under the concept of “logistics genetics,” the Almeria-based breeder presents solutions that prioritize efficiency in the field, post-harvest resistance, and profitability on retail shelves.
In the context of the winter campaign, the company structures its proposal according to commercial destination: Estoque as a reference in Lamuyo for the domestic market, and Panoramix and CGT3582 as strategic materials for export programs and premium segments.
Estoque: the red Lamuyo that meets the real needs of Spanish retailers
The red Lamuyo Estoque exemplifies how an established variety can gain prominence when it aligns with current distribution demands. In contrast to the trend toward excessively large fruits, Estoque opts for a compact, very heavy, thick-skinned format, optimizing box filling and reducing shrinkage during handling.
Its slightly shorter shape minimizes tip breakage, improves logistical efficiency, and facilitates a uniform presentation on the shelf. Agronomically, it offers high yields in winter, an intense red color, and a firmness that appeals to domestic consumers. In addition, it has basic resistance to L4 and a proven adaptation to the mid-late cycle, providing security for the producer.
Panoramix: reliability and consistency for European markets
For export programs, Panoramix has established itself as one of the safest bets in the pear segment. Its technical profile is clearly geared towards long-distance transport: high firmness, absence of microcracking, and uniform size (100–110 g), which speeds up packaging in the warehouse.
The resistance package, with IR to ToBRFV and TSWV, reinforces supply stability and reduces risks in demanding campaigns, making Panoramix a reliable variety for European cooperatives and chains.
CGT3582: innovation in cocktail tomatoes with a vision for the future
En fase precomercial, CGT3582 representa la evolución del segmento cocktail premium. Con un peso de 35–40 g, combina una estética cuidada y atractiva para el consumidor gourmet con un completo blindaje sanitario: resistencias a ToBRFV, Cuchara y Nemátodos.
Este equilibrio entre presentación, sanidad y estabilidad productiva lo posiciona como una opción estratégica para cultivos de ciclo largo, aportando valor a todos los eslabones de la cadena.
Market-oriented genetics: profitability beyond the field
With Estoque regaining Lamuyo’s leading position in the domestic market and Panoramix and CGT3582 securing export and value-added programs, CapGen Seeds demonstrates its ability to anticipate market trends.
The company is thus reinforcing genetic improvement that goes beyond field performance, developing varieties designed to optimize logistics, improve the consumer experience, and guarantee profitability for producers and distributors in an increasingly demanding environment.
