Corn Salad

With more than 15 years of focused breeding expertise, BASF | Nunhems provides premium corn salad seeds designed to deliver consistent quality, strong field performance and dependable results across all seasons. Our varieties are developed in close partnership with growers and processors to meet real-world needs from sowing to shelf. 

Selection starts with listening to growers and processors — what they need in the field and on the shelf shapes the breeding priorities. Vigor is essential for winter production when strong plants drive yield. Equally crucial are rapid, uniform emergence and field holdability, so plants stay compact and resist elongation in low light or summer shade. 

Adapted to changing growing and climate conditions 

Breeding targets also include heat germination and tolerance to changing climate conditions, plus reduced sensitivity to yellowing to keep salad looking fresh for consumers. For the processing industry, varieties are evaluated for mechanical cleaning tolerance and shelf life, ensuring they withstand industrial handling and stay appealing through distribution. Quality control and disease prevention are core strengths.  

Short, practical and reliable: BASF | Nunhems corn salad varieties support growers with seed that performs in the field and produces fresh, market-ready heads every season.
