MMSU pushing off-season tomato variety

  • A HYBRID tomato variety developed by the Mariano Marcos State University (MMSU) has proven resilient amid the wet season and back-to-back typhoons this year. Jesslyn Keith Valite of MMSU Strategic Communication Office said this was showcased during a technology demonstration on Dec.

The article from MSN discusses the development of an off-season tomato variety by Mariano Marcos State University (MMSU) in the Philippines. This new variety, named 'MMSU Tomato 1', is designed to thrive during the rainy season, a period when tomato cultivation typically faces challenges due to diseases like bacterial wilt and pests. The variety was developed through a collaborative effort involving the Department of Agriculture, MMSU, and the Bureau of Agricultural Research. It features resistance to bacterial wilt, a significant issue during the wet season, and has shown promising results in terms of yield and quality. The initiative aims to provide farmers with a reliable source of income by allowing tomato production year-round, thus reducing the dependency on seasonal farming and potentially increasing economic stability for local farmers.
