In order to determine the root yield, leaf yield, root dry matter content, and dry matter yield of 11 fodder beet varieties, a trial was conducted at the Rimski Sancevi, Serbia, Yugoslavia, experimental yield during 1994 and 1995. Root yield were higher in 1994 (79.9 t/ha), in which growing conditions were favourable, than in the unfavourable year 1995 (61.0 t/ha). The variety Petra had the highest average root yield (78.6) t/ha) and dry matter yield (11.3 t/ha), outperforming the standard variety Kyros by 10.7% and 15.3%, respectively. Regarding root yield, the standard was also outperformed by the varieties Polifourra and Clarissima (by 7.9% and 6.3%, respectively), while the domestic (Yugoslav) variety ALH-9110 had a high dry matter yield (11.2 t/ha), 14.3% better than that of Kyros, as well as the highest leaf yield (15.1 t/ha), 15.3% more than the standard. The variety Magnum had the highest and Polifourra the lowest average dry matter content (16.6% and 12.0%, respectively).
