Bittergourd
The bitter gourd segment in India is dynamic and rapidly evolving. Recognizing the potential in this market, the R&D team at Proline set out to explore new opportunities and identified the need to introduce innovative products. Driven by the goal of catering to diverse market demands, and with valuable input and support from the breeder community and product development team, Proline successfully commercialized three new hybrids of bitter gourd.
R 35
High-yielding bitter gourd hybrid known for its uniform fruit shape and attractive dark green colour. The fruits are adorned with strong spines, making them ideal for long-distance transportation while ensuring excellent freshness upon arrival. With a compact fruit size of 8–10 cm, R 35 perfectly aligns with the growing preference for small spiny bitter gourds in the market, enhancing its saleability at mandis. The hybrid also boasts prolific fruit-bearing ability, strong plant vigour, extended crop longevity, and a maturity period of just 50–55 days, making it a reliable and profitable choice for farmers.
R 24
R-24 is a high-yielding hybrid bitter gourd from Proline, known for its 12–14 cm dark green fruits that cater to both small- and medium-spiny market segments, maximizing farmer profitability. With strong plant vigor and a maturity of 52–55 days, R-24 offers intermediate resistance to leaf curl virus and powdery mildew, reducing plant protection costs. Its firm, spiny fruits stay fresh during long commutes, making it a top choice for traders. Consistent in size, colour, and quality, R-24 stands out as a reliable, dual-segment performer in the bitter gourd portfolio.
