Sugar beet of the Cigogne variety is distinguished by high yield potential and sugar content, making it particularly valuable for sugar production. The root has an oval-conical shape and is deeply lodged in the soil at 85%, contributing to good preservation and resistance to damage. The leaf rosette is of medium size, spreading in form and dark green in color, indicating healthy plant development.
This variety exhibits high resistance to drought, cold, various diseases, and lodging, ensuring a stable yield even under adverse conditions. Cigogne is recommended for medium-term harvesting, allowing optimal use of agronomic potential and maximum yield of high-quality raw material.
Cigogne represents a unique combination of sugar beet and table beet: the root shape is characteristic of sugar beets, while the color resembles the Bordeaux variety. This late-maturing green-leafed variety is distinguished by high sweetness, making it attractive both for industrial production and for consumers who value taste and quality. The breeding and production of this variety are carried out by the company «Sesvanderhave», one of the world's largest seed breeders and producers of sugar beet hybrids.
