Broccoli : Cultivation and Irrigation
Broccoli is an annual plant of the Brassicaceae family (Cruciferae), belonging to the genus Brassica. It originates from Italy and is a fast-growing crop that can reach a height of up to 90 centimeters. In Greece, sowing usually takes place from late spring to early summer, while harvesting begins in mid-autumn. Propagation is achieved either by direct sowing in the field or by raising seedlings in nurseries, which are later transplanted once they reach a height of about 15 centimeters. There are several varieties, and the choice depends mainly on the sowing season.
