  • BRIGADIER is a high-yielding variety that has been one of the most widely sown fodder beet varieties in Europe for many years.
  • Fodder beet holds an important place in animal nutrition thanks to its high yield per unit area.
  • Because much of the root grows above the soil surface, manual harvesting is easier and less soil residue remains on the root.
  • In strip grazing, the roots can be easily pulled out and consumed by animals.
  • Chopped roots are used in animal feeding and can also be stored away from sunlight and used for winter feeding.
