Sugar beet hybrid SX1528 is a promising, high-yielding variety combining high productivity and sugar content. This diploid NZ-type hybrid is suitable for cultivation in all regions of the sugar beet growing zone. The root has an oval-conical shape and is buried in the soil by approximately 85-90%, which contributes to its good storability and preservation. The weight of one root reaches about 700 grams, and the sugar content is approximately 19%, ensuring high sucrose yield during processing.
The hybrid exhibits tolerance to cercosporosis, resistance to drought, cold, and other diseases, making it a reliable choice for various climatic conditions. When agronomic requirements are met, up to 85 tons of high-quality sugar beet can be obtained per hectare. It is recommended to harvest roots throughout the entire harvest period to optimize yield and maintain product quality.
Moreover, sugar beet SX1528 is an important sugar-producing crop in the temperate zone and can be used not only for sugar production but also as a fodder crop. In 100 kg of roots, there is a significant amount of feed units and digestible protein, making this hybrid valuable for livestock. The plant's leaf rosette is medium-sized and dark green, indicating good vegetative mass and photosynthetic potential.
