Sugar beet D 10.13 X C 12 3

Sugar beet hybrid D 10.13 X C 12 3 is a highly productive agricultural crop with resistance to multiple glyphosate applications. The plant features a semi-rosette leaf structure and a taproot system, while the root tuber has a cylindrical-conical shape. This hybrid exhibits high resistance to diseases such as cercosporosis, powdery mildew, and root tuber storage rot, ensuring yield stability and product quality.

The hybrid is recommended for sowing in the Polesye, Lestepi, and Steppe zones, where it demonstrates a yield range of 600 to 950 centners per hectare with a sugar content of 18-19%. Successful cultivation requires high moisture levels and optimal temperatures, which contribute to maximum productivity and root tuber quality. The hybrid is suitable for mechanized harvesting, easing agricultural operations and enhancing production efficiency.

The optimal method for sowing sugar beet seeds of this hybrid is strip sowing with a row width of 45 cm, placing seeds individually in rows to ensure straightness. Seed depth should be 2–3 cm with sufficient soil moisture, increasing to 3–4 cm under inadequate or unstable moisture conditions to maintain high germination rates. To achieve high yields, it is recommended to sow 90–110 thousand seeds per hectare, accounting for losses during sowing and row closure.
