Sugar beet variety S 2160 F is a late-maturing tall hybrid intended for cultivation in temperate climates, specifically in the North Caucasus region. This variety is distinguished by high resistance to major diseases, such as root rots, Cercospora, and damage from the root-eating insect, ensuring crop stability and reducing loss risks during cultivation.
The average yield of the variety is about 211 centners per hectare, with sugar content in the root crops reaching 16.2%. Over the years of trials, the maximum yield reached up to 678 centners per hectare, demonstrating the high potential of the variety under favorable conditions. Sugar beet S 2160 F is an important sugar-producing crop that can also be used as a feed base.
In 100 kilograms of roots of this variety, there are 25 feed units and 1.2 kilograms of digestible protein, while the foliage provides an additional 20 feed units and 2.2 kilograms of digestible protein. This makes the variety versatile, suitable both for sugar production and animal feeding. The appearance of the planting material may vary slightly from the images, which does not affect its quality characteristics.
