Variety traits

Beet Maturity Group

Beta vulgaris L.

This trait is determined by the duration of the growing season from emergence to the technical maturity of the root crop. Based on this parameter, beet varieties are divided into early-maturing (up to 100 days), mid-maturing (90–130 days), and late-maturing (over 130 days).

In the reference 40 varieties crop Beet, where this is mentioned in the description.

The maturity group directly influences the intended use of the crop and the cultivation technology. Early-maturing varieties are used for early production but possess reduced shelf life, which limits their long-term storage.

Late-maturing varieties are characterized by better winter storage capacity and higher yield potential due to a longer period of root growth. Agronomic planning based on maturity groups allows for the establishment of a production harvest schedule and accounts for regional climatic conditions when selecting a variety.
