CHRISTIA KWS

The sugar beet hybrid CHRISTIA KWS was developed by the seed company KWS, one of the leading global companies in the production of agricultural crop seed material. This hybrid was created with consideration for cultivation conditions in the Polissya and Forest-Steppe regions, ensuring high adaptability and stable yield. Average yield in these regions reaches 80.2 tons per hectare with an average sugar content of 18.56%, which is an optimal combination for achieving high sugar output — approximately 11 tons per hectare. CHRISTIA KWS belongs to the normal-yielding hybrid type, making it a reliable choice for farmers seeking a balance between quantity and quality of harvest. The hybrid’s seeds are uniform, with a light-green hypocotyl, facilitating their identification and processing. The root crop has a conical shape and average size, which is optimal for mechanical harvesting with minimal losses and damage. The hybrid exhibits high resistance to flowering, which negatively affects yield and sugar content, as well as good resistance to diseases such as rhizomania and Rhizoctonia (RHC). This significantly reduces the risk of losses and enhances product quality. KWS is a European company with a global presence, specializing in the breeding and production of seeds for various agricultural crops, including sugar beet. The company actively invests in developing new varieties adapted to modern agricultural conditions and various climatic zones. In addition to high-quality seed material, KWS provides farmers with support throughout the season, including consultations and digital services, contributing to successful cultivation and maximizing yield.
