Sugar beet D 9.9 X N 3 5 is a classic diploid hybrid with increased sugar content reaching about 18-19%. This variety is characterized by high root yield of approximately 87.5-90 tons per hectare, with an average root weight varying from 700 to 800 grams. The roots have a cylindro-conical shape with a relatively smooth surface, which facilitates harvesting and reduces soil adhesion. The growing season is up to 120 days, allowing for early sowing and cultivation in various climatic zones, including Polesye, Forest Steppe, and Steppe.
The plant is resistant to a number of diseases such as rhizomania, cercosporosis, powdery mildew, and aflamycete root rot, significantly increasing crop reliability. Sugar beet tolerates drought conditions and cold temperatures well, making it suitable for cultivation in diverse climatic conditions. The root system is taproot and penetrates to a depth of 2-2.5 meters, providing good nutrition and resistance to adverse factors.
This variety is widely used for technical purposes for sugar and syrup production, as well as in cooking – for preparing borscht and kvass. Additionally, sugar beet D 9.9 X N 3 5 is used as a waste-free fodder crop, making it a universal and economically viable choice for agriculture.
