SUMMO

Stable Yields and High Marketability

The «Summo» fodder beet variety from KWS breeders is the choice for farms focused on high-quality raw materials suitable for both long-term storage and industrial processing. Thanks to German breeding, this variety demonstrates high resistance to major pathogens, which is critical for maintaining the crop during the growing season.

Disease Protection as a Basis for Profitability

One of the key features of «Summo» is its genetic resistance to rhizomania and ramularia. In intensive farming conditions, where soil pathogen pressure can be high, using this hybrid allows for a reduction in the number of fungicide treatments. This is not only direct budget savings but also a guarantee of producing an environmentally friendly product.

Agrotechnical Advantages

• Shape and Color: Dark red, cone-shaped roots of the «Detroit» type are convenient for mechanized harvesting, as they sit firmly in the soil but are easily extracted without excessive losses.
• Technological Suitability: The variety handles transportation well and has excellent storage life, making it optimal for farmers who prefer staged sales throughout the season rather than immediate field-side realization.
• Application: Its focus on processing and storage makes this variety suitable for operations of various scales—from small family farms to large agro-holdings supplying produce to food processing facilities.

By choosing «Summo» from KWS, agronomists get a predictable outcome: high uniformity of the roots reduces post-harvest handling costs, and their physical and chemical properties perfectly meet the requirements of the modern food and processing industry.
