Sugar Beet

New to KWS and also new to the UK is Isabella KWS.  The UK’s first and only Double Rhizomania Resistant variety.  This is an exciting breakthrough for the UK beet industry and has come at the perfect time just as we are seeing new mutated strains of the rhizomania virus present in the UK. Please read our attached rhizomania brochure for more information about Double Rhizomania Resistance.

At the top of the table again is the UK’s number one variety, Rosalinda KWS, topping for yield and disease resistance making it a strong all-rounder and a variety all growers should have in their fields.  In addition to these top varieties is the highly tolerant BCN variety Annouschka KWS and the UK’s highest sugar content variety Carissima.
