Vegetable Research and Development Station Buzau – Research, innovation, and passion for Romanian vegetable cultivation!

99 years since the birth of Chiru N. Cristea, the man who put down deep roots in Romanian vegetable growing

Today marks 99 years since the birth of the researcher Chiru N. Cristea, the visionary who changed Romanian vegetable growing for good.
🧅🍅 Almost a century later, varieties such as the Buzau onion and the Buzău 1600 tomato stand as testimony to his tireless work, his passion for research and his devotion to authentic Romanian flavour.
At VRDS Buzau, we carry this legacy forward. We continue to produce, preserve and promote valuable varieties, with the same passion that has inspired generations of researchers.
🙏 Thank you, Mr Cristea, for the deep and lasting roots you left in the soil of Romanian horticulture!
