Sugar beet GROUND 2362

Genetic yield potential in the E segment

The POL S 2362 hybrid from the Belgian breeding company Sesvanderhave Nv/Sa is a high-yielding, E-type sugar beet variety designed to maximize raw crop harvest while maintaining processing efficiency. The engineering approach applied by the breeders focuses on balancing intensive root growth with optimal sugar accumulation.

Root morphology and production metrics

The cylindrical-conical shape of the root ensures ideal soil penetration, which facilitates efficient mechanical harvesting with minimal waste. Its medium size supports a high plant density per hectare, a critical factor in unlocking full yield potential. With a sugar content between 18% and 20%, this hybrid is an economically sound choice for sugar refineries demanding high extraction yields per ton of raw material.

Phytosanitary resilience

A key technical advantage of POL S 2362 is its multi-layered resistance to pathogens that typically limit yields in intensive farming systems:

• Root Rot (Blackleg): Robust protection during early development stages, ensuring uniform crop establishment.
• Cercospora Leaf Spot: Enhanced tolerance, allowing for a reduction in fungicide applications while preserving photosynthetic surface area.
• General Rots and Powdery Mildew: Genetic resistance against a complex of diseases prevents premature foliage senescence.

Choosing POL S 2362 by Sesvanderhave represents an investment in agrocenosis stability and operational precision, backed by European breeding standards.
