Kyivsky CHS 62 — a high-yielding sugar beet variety with a conical root shape, distinguished by its excellent taste qualities. This biennial root crop is primarily cultivated for sugar production and is one of the most important sugar-bearing crops in the temperate zone. Modern sugar beet varieties, including Kyivsky CHS 62, contain 18 to 20% sugar, making them valuable raw material for the sugar industry.
Moreover, sugar beet is also used as a forage crop. In 100 kg of roots, there are approximately 25 feeding units and 1.2 kg of digestible protein, providing significant nutritional value for animals. The beet tops also contain 20 feeding units and 2.2 kg of digestible protein, making the plant useful not only for sugar production but also for livestock feeding.
Growing the Kyivsky CHS 62 variety requires adherence to agronomic practices, including the use of fertilizers and plant protection products, which contribute to obtaining stable and high yields. This variety is suitable for cultivation in temperate climates and is a reliable choice for farmers aiming to produce high-quality, productive sugar beets.
