Casablanca produces a good yield of uniform tubers with
19-21% dry matter early in the season. Fry colours off field are excellent. Good quality skin finish with shallow eyes and excellent taste results with market opportunities in the loose new, pre-pack, bakers and French fry markets.
Casablanca will consistently produce high yields early in the
season. A robust first early, with good early ground cover.
Casablanca has excellent resistance to both Blackleg and
Common scab. Casablanca has been approved by all of the
main UK supermarkets, and is widely accepted as a French fry
processing and chip shop variety.
