Copy of Copy of ENERMAX
Beta vulgaris
- A large step forward in DM yield
- Very low dirt tare
- Clean and easy to handle
- 19-20 % DM in root
- Rhizomania tolerant
9 % higher yield
Enermax has white root colour and is a variety based on the well-known fodder beet Magnum. The yield of drymatter in the root of Enermax is around 10 % higher compared to Magnum, but yield of top is slightly lower. Enermax is resistant against the disease Rhizomania.
Very smooth root
Enermax has a very smooth root. The consequence is a very low dirt tare and the soil on the root when lifted falls off easily. Enermax is placed relatively high in the ground.
More than 20 ton DM per ha - For forage and for biogas
In trials the yield of drymatter harvested has been well above 20 ton per ha. Furthermore 4-5 ton is obtained in the beet top. Enermax is, due to the combination of high yield and low dirt tare, ideal for forage as well as for biogas production.
