YASHEK — a single-stem diploid hybrid of sugar beet, possessing high yield potential and sugar content. The plant is of medium height with a medium-sized leaf rosette of dark green color. The root has an oval-conical shape with a soil burial depth of about 85%, which contributes to good stability and preservation. The root mass varies by region and ranges from 615 to 838 grams.

The hybrid is distinguished by high yield: in the Central Black Earth region, the average root collection reaches 477 c/ha with 18.2% sugar content, and in the Middle Volga region, yield reaches 696.8 c/ha with 17.3% sugar content. Sugar collection in the Central Black Earth region is 86.5 c/ha. The vegetative period is about 150 days, which allows recommending the variety for medium harvest times.

YASHEK is resistant to various adverse factors: it shows low susceptibility to powdery mildew, moderate resistance to root mites and root rot, and is also resistant to cercosporosis. The hybrid withstands drought and cooling well, has good storage life, which makes it a reliable choice for growing in various climatic conditions.
