About Vira Agro

A vegetable seed company — what we supply, how we choose it, and who it is for.

Who we are

A seed company, and only a seed company

Vira Agro supplies and distributes vegetable seed. That single focus is deliberate. Variety performance turns on details — plant habit, maturity class, the exact resistance package — and those details get flattened inside a catalogue that sells everything a farm might need.

We work with hybrid and open-pollinated varieties across eight vegetable crops, selected for how they behave in regional growing conditions rather than for how they read in a brochure. Every variety on this site carries its full specification, so the decision stays with the grower.

What we do

Supply, selection, and straight answers

Supply and distribution

We source vegetable seed from established breeding programmes and distribute it to growers and traders across the region, in the pack sizes the trade actually uses.

Variety selection

A variety earns a place in the catalogue on performance under regional conditions — growing system, disease pressure, and the fruit quality the market pays for.

Technical clarity

Every datasheet is published in full, resistance codes included and explained. When a variety is the wrong fit for your season, we say so rather than sell it.

Our criteria

What we look at before adding a variety

Four questions, asked in this order. A variety that fails the first one never reaches the second.

01

Growing system

Open field and greenhouse are different jobs. Plant habit, flower type and fruit set behave differently under cover, so the system decides the shortlist before anything else does.

02

Disease pressure

The resistance package has to answer the pathogens that actually show up in the region — TYLCV and ToBRFV in tomato, Fusarium in melon, powdery mildew across the cucurbits.

03

Market quality

Fruit shape, size, colour and firmness decide whether a crop sells and whether it survives the trip. A high-yielding variety that arrives soft has not helped anyone.

04

Season fit

Maturity class has to fit the rotation and the planting window. Early, medium and late are not preferences — they are constraints set by the calendar.

Coverage

Eight crops, two growing systems

Hybrid F1 and open-pollinated varieties, each published with its full technical specification.
