Summary
Goya is a diploid variety with the potential to produce very high adjusted tonnes and sugar yields combined with resistance to Rhizomania
This is especially important to the increasing numbers of growers who have the additional risk of Rhizomania as Goya offers the highest adjusted yield potential of its type on the Recommended List. Goya has a high sugar content, sound agronomic characters and excellent foliar disease resistance. Goya has shown a very consistent performance across seasons and sites. This package of desirable characteristics ensures Goya is suitable for sowing in any situation and will become a popular variety with all english growers.
In the current era of lower sugar beet prices, adjusted tonnes/ha continues to be the first consideration when choosing a variety. Goya has produced excellent adjusted tonnes - as well as sugar and root yields - providing an exceptional opportunity to give high returns per hectare.
