X 77.1 X E 12.3 is a high-yield, sugary hybrid of sugar beet, distinguished by its high drought resistance and resistance to major diseases, including rhizomani, cercosporosis, powdery mildew, and afanomyces root rot. The hybrid ensures high sugar yield with excellent quality of purified normal juice, making it in demand for sugar production. Root mass reaches about 850 grams, and yield can be up to 90 tons per hectare with a sugar content of about 19%. The plant is well-adapted to various growing conditions, including drought and excessive moisture, and is suitable for Polesye, Forest-Steppe, and Steppe zones.
Sugar beet X 77.1 X E 12.3 is a heat-loving and heat-resistant crop; the optimal temperature for its growth and development is 20-22°C, although photosynthesis proceeds effectively even at temperatures above 40°C. The plant requires sufficient moisture, especially during the intensive growth of root crops in July-August. Thanks to a developed root system capable of absorbing water from a depth of up to 2.5 meters, the hybrid demonstrates good drought resistance. Sugar beet seeds germinate at temperatures from +4 to +17°C, with the time of seedling emergence depending on germination temperature. In the autumn period, the plant can withstand frosts up to -5°C without harm to sugar accumulation.
The hybrid is recommended for early and mid-late harvesting, which allows optimizing collection deadlines depending on climatic conditions. The recommended plant density at harvest is about 90-115 thousand per hectare, and the seeding rate is 1.3 seeding units per hectare. High disease resistance and adaptability to various soil-climatic conditions make X 77.1 X E 12.3 a reliable choice for producers aiming to obtain a stable and high-quality sugar beet harvest.
