The paper presents the results of measurements of stresses and critical deformations, as well as the energy in the critical point for carrot root samples. The measurements were conducted by applying different deformation speeds in the range of 0.083 to 0.333 mm/s. The carrot roots were stored in a dry room for four days in order to differentiate their moisture content and water potential level. Water potential proved to be the parameter that strongly influenced the level of critical deformation. The adequacy of using the criterion of critical deformation for carrot roots in the range of high water potential values was confirmed.
