Cronos gives you a combination of good yield and a possibility to clean the land for nematodes. The variety gives a high netto yield of regular shaped, oval long tubers. The skin is nice and the eyes are shallow. The variety can be used for fresh market and processing of french fries. Cronos gives a very nice grade in big size tubers. Can very well be used for washing.
