Sugar beet of the SVENA variety is a high-yielding crop with high sugar content, reaching 18-20%. This variety is characterized by an oval-conical root shape, which is submerged in the soil by approximately 85%, contributing to its good storability. The medium-sized, branched leaf rosette has a dark green color, indicating healthy plant development.
SVENA has high resistance to unfavorable conditions such as drought, frosts, and various diseases, as well as premature flowering. These qualities make the variety a reliable choice for growing in a temperate climate and ensure a stable harvest with average harvest dates. The optimal temperature for seed germination is 13-15°C, although they can germinate already at +5°C.
Moreover, sugar beet SVENA is used not only for sugar production but also as a forage crop. In 100 kg of roots, there are 25 feed units and 1.2 kg of digestible protein, while the tops provide 20 feed units and 2.2 kg of digestible protein. To achieve maximum sugar content and yield, it is important to ensure sufficient light during the vegetation period.
