Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety belongs to the monogerm category. During tests on sandy soils, it showed some of the highest results for the content of total soluble sugars in juice and occupied high positions in gross sugar yield, while a low level of its losses in molasses was noted.

The plant possesses adaptability to stress conditions, in particular to saline soils. The application of potassium fertilizers contributes to the improvement of sugar solubility indicators and also increases the content of phenolic and flavonoid compounds in the composition of the root crop.
