'''[[Template:Chránených Označení Pôvodu|CHOP]] Všestarská cibule''' is an [[onion]] from the Czech Republic.

'''Shape''': regularly spherical or ovate.

'''Appearance''': the contents of each package are uniform; the surface comprises at least two layers of dry skin which cover the fleshy scales, forming a compact [[onion]]. The skin must not be moist or mouldy and the [[onion]] must not show signs of attack by diseases or pests.

'''Colour''': the skin is golden yellow (it should not be dark brown), and the flesh is white to greenish white.

'''Taste''': typical of [[onions]], delicate, sweet; varying degree of hotness according to the variety.

'''Odour''': sweet, typically pungent [[onion]] smell.

'''Varieties of ‘Všestarská cibule’ grown''': Radar, Armstrong, Hyskin, Sedona, Hybelle, Sturon, Baldito, Narvito, Canto, Takmar, Takstar, Wellington, Viktory, Profit, Festival.

'''Geographical area''':

Municipality of Všestary and the surrounding area, including the municipalities of Bříza, Rosnice, Světí, Rozběřice, Neděliště, Sendražice, Máslojedy, Čístěves, Horní Dohnalice, Střezetice and Probluz, in the Hradec Králové region of the Czech Republic.

'''Method of production''':

‘Všestarská cibule’ is grown from high-quality hybrid seed and certified seedlings. Method used to grow ‘Všestarská cibule’: the soil is prepared organically; it is thoroughly ploughed in the autumn; the soil is prepared in the autumn prior to planting; the winter [[onions]] are planted; the soil is prepared in the spring prior to sowing and planting; the seedlings are planted and the seeds sown; they are irrigated as required; weeding is carried out; nitrogenous fertilisers are applied; if necessary during the growing period, steps are taken to combat weeds, diseases and pests; the [[onions]] are topped and removed from the soil; they are collected after being allowed to dry; the [[onions]] are placed in the store; they are checked and impurities are removed on the eco-roller system; they are further dried and aired; they are graded and sized; the [[onions]] are wrapped in nets (3, 5, 10, 15, 20 or 25 kg) as required by the customer or presented in bulk in boxes of 10, 15, 20 or 25 kg, or possibly in other quantities by agreement; they are labelled and dispatched.

The modern storage facility, which is sufficiently dry and aired, enables [[onions]] to be stored for a period of 10 months while preserving their outstanding quality. Storage and wrapping must be undertaken within the defined area. In this way, damage to the [[onion]] during transfer is avoided. This approach also guarantees that the [[onions]] are not mixed up with [[onions]] grown elsewhere. This coordinated process of growing, storing and wrapping in one place means that the [[onions]] do not deteriorate.

'''Link''':

‘Všestarská cibule’ has four basic positive characteristics, which are linked to the environment and growing method.

The unique nature of ‘Všestarská cibule’ derives from the:

— balance of their nutritional parameters,

— high level of iron,

— very high level of vitamin B3 (niacin),

— absence or low levels of harmful substances.

Nutritional parameters — balance Most of the nutritional parameters of ‘Všestarská cibule’ (formative substances, [[minerals]], [[vitamins]]) are balanced, without extremes and correspond to the expected favourable characteristics of an [[onion]]. They comprise, for example, potassium, phosphorus and vitamins B1, B2 and B6, iron — high level, vitamin B3 (niacin) — very high level The level.

The natural conditions in the growing area comprise the landscape, the soil and the climate. The general natural conditions in the defined area are very good for growing [[onions]]. The altitude of Všestary is 265 metres above sea level and the growing plots are at an altitude of 245-320 meters. The region is therefore relatively low-lying, with plenty of sunshine. The relief of the landscape is slightly rugged and most of the plots are flat or gently sloping. The character of the landscape favours good moisture retention in the soil. It comprises a broad valley open to the South, in which there are rich layers of soil deposited from the River Elbe. The local soils are made up of Quaternary sediments. The oldest rocks are from the Cretaceous formation, which occurs in the form of marl here. All the layers of the marl are, however, covered with deep loess deposits. Loess is the bedrock substratum virtually throughout the area. On these local loesses, as a result of a large number of soil-forming factors, the following genetic soil types have evolved in particular: slightly gleyed brown earth, and black earth. The soils in the defined area meet the best conditions for growing [[onions]] — they are warm, deep, moist, and rich in humus and nutrients, with a neutral pH reaction. The high natural humus content is also favourably influenced by the cropping pattern. In view of their mineral content and pH, the soils are very suitable for growing [[onions]].

The area has equable climatic conditions. Temperatures are mild and relatively constant, and the average monthly temperature is 6,9 °C, rising to 13,4 °C during the growing season of April to September. The average monthly precipitation is 48 mm, with no extreme monthly variations; average monthly precipitation in the defined area is somewhat lower than in the Czech Republic as a whole. During the growing season, 437 mm of precipitation falls, the largest volume of which in the months of June (86 mm), July (83 mm) and August (84 mm). The area's moderate prevailing winds from various directions contribute to the mild temperatures and help ensure suitable precipitation without extreme variations and aeration of the soil. At the same time, there are no extreme winds to cause excessive drying out of the countryside. The overall mild climate with slight variations and lower levels of precipitation during the [[onion]]'s growing season offers favourable climatic conditions for growing [[onions]] in the defined area. A fundamental merit of ‘Všestarská cibule’ lies in the fact that it is so little affected by variations in monthly or annual precipitation. The environmental conditions (landscape, climate and soil) help preserve adequate soil moisture even when the precipitation in a particular season or year is poor. Lack of precipitation does not affect the quality or the quantity of the [[onions]] produced. In the second half of the growing season the [[onions]] prefer a drier soil; in view of the natural conditions, therefore, producers need provide additional irrigation only rather exceptionally in the event of very dry weather.

History of growing [[onion]]-growing has a long tradition in the defined area. Large-scale [[onion]]-growing in Všestary was launched in 1964 by the managers of the then cooperative, taking account of the high fertility of the soil, favourable altitude and the construction of a new irrigation system along the river Elbe. Over the course of year of growing ‘Všestarská cibule’, the producer, its members and workers have identified which methods are most suitable for growing [[onions]] in the defined area and have been using those methods for a long time. In view of the high quality of the local [[onion]], the growing tradition has continued until the present day, with good prospects for the future. The producer is currently a cooperative with 112 members. The application of fertiliser is carried out on the basis of soil analyses. The soil does not therefore become exhausted and the ‘old soil strength’ is maintained. The mechanically gentle treatment of the soil is highly important. The Terragator has, for example, proved to be very suitable for applying fertiliser; this equipment, on the one hand, allows fertiliser to be dispensed precisely and, on the other, does not compact the soil (using a Terragator is not a prerequisite for growing ‘Všestarská cibule’, while fertilising contributes to the quality). This has a great influence on the permeability of the soil, uptake of nutrients and, therefore, the fertility of the soil. The soil is not damaged, no compaction occurs in the soil substrata, the rootlets of the plants can penetrate more deeply and the plant takes up nutrients even from the substrata. In this way, the soil is kept in excellent condition. In order to keep any environmental damage to a minimum, organic fertilisers are used as far as possible, particularly concentrated stillage and fertilisers prepared by composting with an active air flow, i.e. of the Bioganik type.

Appropriate post-harvest processing The harvest is carried out during drier weather, so that the harvested [[onions]] can be dried directly in the field. The [[onions]] are collected by gentle means and carried a short distance to the producer's storage facility; they are wrapped direct from the storage facility and transported to the purchasers. Through appropriate post-harvest processing, storage and wrapping ‘Všestarská cibule’ retains its natural parameters, which it has acquired from the natural environment in the field and through gentle growing methods. By minimising the distance and time required to transfer the harvested [[onions]] to the storage area and wrapping them practically straight from the store, the possibility of mechanical damage or rotting is reduced to a minimum.
