The research was carried out in a Vegetable Stationary, in the climatic conditions of the Dorohoi area in Agricola Frugal farm Ltd. During the experimental period, were made observations and biometric measurements for main agroproductive properties: morphological and phenological characterization, amount of harvest and dynamics for the four cultivars.

Root length, will vary depending on the range of 14-18 cm (Chantenay Red Core) to 22 - 24 cm (Flam F1).The highest production was obtained by hybrid cultivars 34.72 t / ha at Tito and 48.15 t / ha to Flam.
