Bio Loire Océan, an organization of 70 producers of organic fruit and vegetables, is launching a new variety: the Nantaise carrot from Grasseval.
Created by Nicolas Oran, organic producer in Corné (Loire-Authion), under the aegis of Bio Loire Océan, this new variety is the result of a long selection process on farmers’ seeds. It required nearly 15 years of research, in collaboration with Agrocampus West IRHS (Research Institute in Horticulture and Seeds) and the “Carrot and other Daucus” network.
Semi-long, crunchy, slightly sweet, smooth and with a juiciness of the “Nantaise” type, it bears the name of the small township where it was created, on the farm of Nicolas Oran and Camille Sourdin.
