Consumer Quality

Isle of Jura has shown extremely promising results for the pre-pack and general ware markets thanks to excellent flavour that has already been highlighted in numerous third-party taste tests. It has medium dry matter and boils extremely well.

Agronomic Features

Isle of Jura has relatively large tuber numbers allowing consistently high yield potential of 45x65 mm ware, with very moderate out-grade levels. It has also shown very good resistance to powdery scab, blackleg, gangrene, virus Y and spraing.
