Eskimo F1 and Frost Tolerance
Independent evaluations performed by NIAB suggest that Eskimo F1 provided the highest percentage of sound carrots from an open field
location following frost conditions. Trials and commercial evidence to date lead us to believe the following factors may be influencing
Eskimo F1’s frost tolerance.
• Roots implant deeper into the soil keeping crowns covered and thick foliage acts as an insulating layer similar to straw
• High sugar content may confer properties similar to anti-freeze
• Roots have a high dry matter content which may help them withstand the damage induced by freeze / thaw action
