Seed Quality
SEMO is proud of the high quality of its production. Any seed
leaving the grounds of SEMO must comply with very high
standards.
Approach to Growers
Besides offering high quality seeds, our goal is also to provide
growers with a functional system of associated services. Our
customer service does not end with the purchase
of seeds. We are prepared to provide you with an advisory
service during growing and help you to solve any problems
you may encounter.
STANDARD and PRECISION seeds
Growers may choose from the following two basic categories
of seeds:
- STANDARD seeds
- PRECISION seeds
R

2010 - 2012
STANDARD seeds
These seeds are standard seeds that meet EU standards.
Most seeds in this category are coated with fungicides.
STANDARD seeds are sold by weight (kg).
PRECISION seeds
These seeds are characterized by top quality and abovestandard
adjustment (as detailed in the table). PRECISION
seeds are sold per seed (in pieces). The adjustment of
PRECISION seeds includes the following:
����� grading
The seeds are sorted according to their size, while
PRECISION includes grading of only the best quality seeds.
The uniform size of the seeds implies a uniform germination
as well as emergence rate and also increases the balance
of the stand.
����� HWT
Hot water treatment against bacteriosis is carried out by
SEMO in the case of pepper, carrot, parsley and
Brassicaceae seeds. This treatment eliminates the primary
source of infection - bacteria on the seed surface.
Next types of seeds adjustment
����� Primed seeds of parsley, celeriac and carrot
Growth of plants is quicker and uniform after sowing of primed
seeds.
breeding, production, sale • vegetable, flower and herb seeds
����� Thermo-primed seeds of lettuce and carrot

is better with thermo-primed seeds.
����� PILLS

This high-quality technology comprises of a special coating
mixture for each type of seed and method of growing. Our
basic offer includes celery, lettuce and kohlrabi pills.

standards of biological production and are intended for
organic farming. We offer organic seeds in many spices
including Basil or Dill for example.

what is a good base for achieving high yield.

Sweet Pepper
Pepper
Capsicum annuum L. (partim)
Without exaggeration we can say that peppers are for SEMO
the main commodity. We offer a whole range of types of
peppers and every year we bring something new to the
market. We focus mainly on the "Hungarian pepper", i.e. a
pyramid-shaped pepper for field growing. Moreover our range
includes blocky and kapia varieties, condiment pepper as
well as a wide offer of hot peppers.
Kapia Type
This type of pepper has been previously represented in our
range only by the non-hybrid variety "LYDIA". Now, we are
preparing for you the entire trio of efficient Kapia pepper
hybrids with hard fruits, created especially for open field
growing.
RAFAELA F1
It is our first Kapia pepper hybrid which our company has
offered to customers. It should be noted that this entry was
very successful. Responses of Central-European growers and
farmers in the Balkan countries, where this type of pepper is
dominant, are more than favourable. The main advantages of
this hybrid are perfect health and high yield of uniform fruits.
Slimmer conical fruits are very firm and suitable for transport
and storaging for a short period. Thanks to this RAFAELA is
perfect for both - processing industry and fresh market as
well. We recommend it mainly for harvesting when red.
We will include in the range of our Kapia peppers soon:
RADUZA F1
Early, with a wider conical fruit, it is very suitable for green harvest.
RADMILA F1
Early, flat conical fruit, it is suitable for green and red harvest.
Flat fruit is very suitable for baking or frying.
Light green pyramid type
Light green pyramid pepper is a very sought after (requested)
type of pepper in Central Europe. Also in this type of pepper,
we offer three hybrids, which are sorted from the darkest colour
type LUNGY F1 through the light-green type SLAVY F1 to
creamy-green hybrid SLOVANA F1.
SLAVY F1
Excellent hybrid with high reliable yields. It is very good for
open field production and also for plastic tunnels and
greenhouses. SLAVY is a very early type. Pyramid fruit is
firm with thick walls. The fruit is pale green in technical
ripeness and red in botanical one. Excellent quality of both
green and red harvest.
breeding, production, sale • vegetable, flower and herb seeds
SLOVANA F1
High yielding variety with pyramid fruits (similar like SLAVY
but more heavy and blunter) and stable continuous ripening.
Colour of fruit changes from white green to red. Weight of
fruits is about 130 g. We recommend SLOVANA for foil
houses and open field production. Firm fruits of this variety
are very suitable for longer transport and mid term storaging.
SLOVANA gives really big yields of nice fruits but demands
intensive production with drop irrigation and regular harvest.
LUNGY F1
Very early pepper with perfect health, stress tolerance and
higher growth. Wide conical fruit ripens from light green to
dark green colour. LUNGY is suitable for fresh market and
also for industry because of uniform and firm fruits. We
recommend LUNGY for both types of production - green
and red maturity.

Sweet Pepper
Creamy white pyramid ("Hungarian") type
Our variety AMY reigned for years in this category of pepper
and it remains valid. It is still the dominant pepper of open
fields without regular irrigation. Even with regard to the cream
pepper segment, our new hybrids are asserting forward.
AMYKA F1 offers fruits of AMY size and SUPERAMY F1 has
fruits larger and heavier. Both these hybrids are created
primarily for intensive method of growing, where they overcome
the non-hybrid variety AMY in amount of yield and fruit quality.
AMY
Very popular pepper variety. Farmers keep referring to this as
the "Queen" of field peppers. This pyramid type fruit with good
taste is of creamy colour, very attractive for buyers. Strong points
of AMY are reliable yields and very good health.
AMY
AMYKA F1
Our new hybrid of "AMY" type. Fruits are very similar to AMY
but more uniform in shape and without anthocyan strips
during all growing. We recommend harvest in white colour
first of all. Best suited for fresh market and industry too -
nice for filling.
breeding, production, sale • vegetable, flower and herb seeds
AMYKA F1
KVADRY F1
SUPERAMY F1
Next hybrid of "AMY" type with bigger and heavier fruits. Very
strong fruit-setting. It is variety for intensive growing with drop
irrigation and regular harvest. SUPERAMY offers high yield
of uniform fruits in this conditions.
Blocky type
We will offer you four blocky type peppers, which are different
in colours and sizes of fruits. All of these hybrids can be
recommended for cultivation in greenhouses and plastic
greenhouses. "KVADRY F1", "SASKIA F1" and "RUBIKA F1"
proved good also in open field conditions.
KVADRY F1
High quality 4 lobed blocky sweet pepper with excellent taste
and colour. KVADRY has proved to be a variety for both indoor
and outdoor production. We recommend harvesting the thick
walled fruit in a creamy white colour. KVADRY is a high
yielding and stress tolerant variety.
SASKIA F1
R

2010 - 2012
SASKIA F1
Nice "apple" green 4 lobed blocky fruits with very delicious taste
are typical for this hybrid. Suitable to both in- and out-door
cultures. Harvest is possible in green and also red colour.
Other types of sweet pepper
"SEMO" does not miss even other pepper types breeding. New
sweet ram's horn "SEMAROH", snack pepper "HAMIK" or
prepared tomato pepper "TAMINA F1" are proof of that.
SEMAROH
Our new "ram horn" pepper. Long (15 - 17 cm) pale green

Ornamental Pepper
Pepper
Capsicum annuum L. (partim)
It is a type of pepper with compact growth and small strongly
hot fruit. It can be successfully grown in open field, but it is very
suitable also for potting and indoor growing. Given the inreasing
interest about ornamental peppers, we are gradually incoming
with new varieties. Growers know very well our variety
PYRAMID. Fruits of this variety with length about 2 cm ripen
from yellow-green through purple to red colour when mature.
Varieties RED FLAME and YELLOW FLAME are noveltis for
season 2011. Both varieties have a small pyramidal fruit. We
will complement the range of varieties with small round fruit,
and longer pointed fruit.

Bush Tomato
Lycopersicon lycopersicum (L.) Karsten ex Farw
Our company is an important and traditional breeder of bush
tomatoes. We also enlarge our assortment of bush tomatoes
but now only in hybrids because they overcome the existing
varieties in terms of yield and health state.
Bush tomatoes for industrial processing
Mainly supply of tomatoes for industrial processing is at the
forefront of our concerns. The non-hybrid series begins from
very early variety SEJK and ends with the mid-late tomato
TRITONEX.
We extended the hybrid series by mid-late variety
"SEMAKING F1" with a larger oval fruit, and "SEMAPEEL
F1" with elongated fruit. The planned new "SEMALATE F1"
will be the latest tomato hybrid in our assortment.
Bush tomatoes for fresh market
breeding, production, sale • vegetable, flower and herb seeds
TEREZA F1
Main requirements for this type of tomatoes are round
non-crackling fruit suitable for transport and continuous
fruit-setting. We will complement the pair of early hybrids
MARIENKA F1 and DARINKA F1 with the large-fruit medium
early hybrid TEREZA F1.
