What matters in sugar beets
- Root size and tonnage
- Sugar content and recoverable sugar per acre
- Canopy health through the season
01 / ZyDrive / Soil
Where ZyDrive fits
At planting with starter fertility, or through irrigation. Humic acid plus enzymes for soil biology and nutrient cycling in the root zone.
02 / Enhance / Foliar
Where Enhance fits
Foliar passes after hail, heat or herbicide stress, or when roots are limited by cold or wet soil.
Field evidence
Treated next to untreated.
Third-party research

How to trial it
Run it on a block you can measure.
Leave untreated check strips, dig and weigh beets from each strip before harvest, and compare tons and sugar at delivery.
Build a program for my sugar beetsDon’t take our word for it. Prove it on your farm.
Start with a measurable block. Keep a check. Dig it, weigh it and compare it on your own ground. Many growers begin around 40 acres.
