Sugar beet variety D 66 X N 18 is a high-yielding crop with a high sugar content, reaching 18–20%. This variety is characterized by an oval-conical root shape, which is buried in the soil by approximately 85%, while the leaf rosette has a medium size, spreading form, and dark green color. Due to its characteristics, the variety has a high yield potential and sugar content, making it valuable for sugar production and feed base.
D 66 X N 18 is resistant to adverse environmental factors, including drought, frosts, and various diseases. Moreover, the variety has good storability and resistance to bolting, which allows it to be recommended for harvest in medium terms. These qualities ensure crop stability and high product quality even in complex climatic conditions.
To increase productivity and improve the agro-physical properties of the soil when growing this variety, the use of mulching technologies is recommended. The optimal technological cycle includes main and pre-sowing soil processing with various types of mulch, which contributes to moisture retention and improved soil structure. Such an approach allows increasing the efficiency of sugar beet cultivation and ensuring high yield indicators.
