Sugar beet Georgina

Stable yields in challenging environments

Working with the Georgina sugar beet hybrid from KWS is all about predictability. As a triploid hybrid of the NZ (normal-sugar) type, it demonstrates excellent plasticity across different soil profiles, which is essential when managing large-scale operations.

Robust disease resistance

The main challenge in beet production is often leaf disease management. Georgina excels here, offering strong natural resistance to cercospora and rhizomania. Additionally, its resistance to common scab ensures that roots emerge clean, which simplifies harvesting operations and maintains high quality for the refinery.

Operational efficiency

From an operator's perspective, this hybrid performs exceptionally well during early growth stages. Its vigorous emergence ensures uniform canopy closure, which naturally suppresses weed competition. Key advantages of choosing KWS Georgina include:

• Reliable balance between sugar content and root yield;
• High stress tolerance during the mid-season period;
• Uniform root shape, making it easier to calibrate during harvest.

German breeding from KWS consistently delivers for a reason. With Georgina, it is not about gambling on the weather; it is about ensuring that at the end of the season, you have a high-yielding crop that has required minimal interventions to reach its full potential.
