Evaluations of Specialty Crop Vegetables

Robert Hadad, Extension Vegetable Specialist
Cornell Vegetable Program

April 18, 2016

Evaluations of Specialty Crop Vegetables
Each year, the Cornell Vegetable Program will be evaluating new and different vegetable varieties suited for the specialty crop or ethnic markets. Growers are encouraged to check them out here to see how they have performed in Western NY.

The evaluations will be made on several factors:
  • Production
  • How well they perform under WNY conditions
  • Insects and disease issues
  • Comments
  • Marketing information
We will be adding evaluations of additional varieties each season.
