The Calcite variety is an industrial type and is grown to obtain roots, which after drying and roasting are used in the food industry. It also serves as a subject of scientific research for assessing the content of inulin and other chemical components that determine raw material quality.
The variety is characterized by a high content of specific metabolites and in comparative studies is classified as the most bitter among the studied industrial varieties. Precise numerical indicators for maturity group, plant height, and disease resistance are absent in the publications.
