Table Beet Agat

The Professional Choice for Long-Term Storage

The Agat beet variety is a prime example of the "Detroit" type, engineered for industrial-grade consistency and efficiency. Developed by experts at the Federal Scientific Center for Vegetable Production, this variety is tailored for growers who prioritize uniform yield and processing quality.

Core Advantages

• Processing Efficiency: The perfectly round root shape streamlines automated washing, peeling, and dicing in processing facilities.
• Superior Internal Quality: Deep dark-red flesh without white rings ensures an attractive end product, perfect for high-quality juice and pre-cooked beet mixes.
• Growth Cycle: A maturity window of 60–70 days allows for predictable mid-season supply, ideal for market stability.

Why Agat Fits Your Business

Agat is built for farms aiming at winter storage and long-term supply chains. Unlike lighter early-season varieties, Agat possesses a dense, firm structure that maintains its internal quality throughout the winter months. For businesses supplying retail chains, the uniform size of these roots significantly reduces post-harvest waste and labor costs.

Strategic Considerations

As a classic Detroit-type variety, Agat requires a well-managed agronomic background. It thrives when soil fertility and moisture levels are consistent; in poor soil conditions, yield uniformity may be compromised. If your goal is ultra-early "bunched" beet production in the spring, consider other niche varieties; however, if your objective is sustainable, high-volume production for storage or processing, Agat is a highly reliable asset.
