RBMS 17

RBMS 17 — a sugar beet hybrid developed to achieve high yield and quality sugar content. This mid-late variety is characterized by stable development and is adapted to various climatic conditions, allowing successful cultivation in different regions, including the Central Chernozem and Western Siberia regions. RBMS 17 is a one-stem diploid hybrid on a sterile base of NZ type, ensuring its high productivity and stability.

The yield of root crops of RBMS 17 varies by region: in the Central Chernozem region, the average yield reaches 604 centners per hectare with about 17.2% sugar content, significantly exceeding standard varieties. In the Western Siberia region, the yield is about 343 centners per hectare with 16.8% sugar content. Root crop mass varies from 535 to 729 grams, indicating the hybrid's large-fruited nature. Sugar collection is also high, reaching 130 centners per hectare in some regions.

Hybrid RBMS 17 possesses good disease resistance, including root rots, root-eating beetles, cercosporosis, and powdery mildew, reducing crop losses and improving product quality. Due to these characteristics, the variety is widely used in the agro-industry for sugar production and other agricultural products. High sugariness and stable yield make RBMS 17 a profitable choice for farmers seeking efficient and sustainable sugar beet cultivation.
