The new fodder beet variety Sasha is a multigerm tetraploid created by individual selection in the fodder beet SKR origin. It has high productivity with increased dry matter content. Variety characteristics are the very good uniformity of roots colour, form and position in the ground. The variety does not bolt in the first vegetation year, and has comparatively good resistance to powdery mildew and Cercospora leaf spots, it is resistant to root rot that allows good conservation and animal feeding in autumn-winter period. Sasha forms higher than Standard's root yield from 52.34 t/ha in years with strongly expressed water deficiency, to 108.59 t/ha in years with normal vegetation rainfalls.The stable high yield is combined with significantly increased dry matter content. The yield of dry matter from a unit of area of Sasha is higher than the yield of the Standard varieties during the years of tesing 10.706 t/ha. With these characteristics the fodder beet variety Sasha meets the requirements of the intensive technologies of growing and nourishing feeding of live-stock.
