Project Code
Short Summary
This report sought to determine the optimum plant spacing that will allow growers to meet size specification for beetroot growers with the new desired being between 50 to 75-millimetre in size. Along with spacing, the project also investigated varieties testing for quality attributes and their ability to produce single seedlings from fruiting clusters.
