Stable Yield and High Sugar Content

The "Halyna" variety, developed by the Institute of Sugar Beet of the NAAS, remains a reliable solution for producers focused on high-quality sugar output. Selecting this variety is a strategic move for farms operating in regions with significant phytosanitary pressure.

Phytosanitary Resistance as a Cost-Reduction Tool

The primary advantage of "Halyna" is its complex resistance to pathogens, which directly affects the bottom line:

• Cercospora leaf spot: High resistance reduces the need for frequent fungicide applications, making it efficient during wet summers.
• Rhizomania: Allows for stable production on infested soils, preventing yield losses that often plague susceptible hybrids.
• Common Scab: Minimizes post-harvest decay and maintains crop quality during long-term storage.

Economic Efficiency

For processing plants, "Halyna" is valued for its steady sugar content of 18–20%. Practically, this variety is well-suited for intensive farming systems where yield quality must be maintained despite operational challenges. The variety is forgiving of minor agronomic errors and retains its sugar profile even if harvest dates fluctuate. It is a robust choice for farmers who prioritize post-harvest storage security and want to mitigate the risks of root rot after lifting.
