Variety traits
Beta vulgaris Fodder Beet Group
Classification of fodder beet varieties based on the duration of the growing season from emergence to technical maturity of the root crops, which determines harvesting schedules and yield potential.
In the reference 34 varieties crop Mangelwurzel, where this is mentioned in the description.
Maturity groups for fodder beet are determined by the number of days required to complete the cycle from mass emergence to technical maturity of the root crops and are subdivided into early-maturing, medium-early, medium-maturing, medium-late, and late-maturing categories. Physiological ripening under field conditions is visually diagnosed by the yellowing of part of the foliage and the cessation of active growth of new leaves.
The classification of a variety into a specific maturity group is a key factor when planning agronomic operations, as it determines the variety's suitability for the cumulative active temperatures of a region. Late-maturing varieties have a higher productivity potential when moisture availability is sufficient; however, early-maturing forms are critical for zones with a short growing season and differ in their specific storage requirements due to lower keeping quality.
