POL 185 is a sugar beet variety intended for cultivation for sugar production. This crop is characterized by high raw material sugar content, reaching 16.7-17%, which is an excellent indicator for producing a quality product. Sugar beet POL 185 is successfully grown in various regions, including the Sumy region, where it holds a significant place in agricultural production.
Growing sugar beet POL 185 requires attention to environmental conditions, as the crop is susceptible to drought, weeds, and pests such as flea beetle and grey click beetle. To ensure high yields and raw material quality, comprehensive agronomic measures must be applied, including pest protection and weed control.
Processing of sugar beet POL 185 is carried out at specialized sugar factories, where third-category sugar is obtained from raw materials with a yield of about 13% and low coloration of no more than 0.8. This allows for the production of quality sugar in demand on the market. Due to its characteristics and resistance to adverse factors, the POL 185 variety is a profitable choice for farmers engaged in sugar beet cultivation.
