The new Yvyrá apple continues to surprise due to its low demand for winter cold
Since its launch onto the plant market in 2018, ‘GVU Yvyrá’ has been surprising its own creators, due to its rusticity and a harvest date that is increasingly earlier in the season.
In the 2020/21 season, some farms in Uruguay and southern Brazil were able to harvest fruit from Yvyrá at the same time as the Condessa, which is the earliest harvested cultivar in the region, before the Gala group.
This was possible due to the adjustment of its pollinators - earlier flowering varieties - such as Eva, Princesa and Anna. In a cultivar that has long and early flowering, it allows the management of its harvest date based on the choice of its pollinators.
