The sowing periods and shading net infl uence on the yield of some varieties of radish in the lowland of Transcarpathia

The results of research on the influence of seed sowing dates on the yield and quality of the root crops of three varieties of radish (Frantsuzkyj Snidanok, Chempion, 18 karat) were presented. The possibility of prolongation of the period of receipt of fresh produce by the use of shade netting during late crop sowing was studied. The highest quality crop was obtained from the Frantsuzkyj snidanok and the Chempion for sowing in the III decade of March and in the III decade of April to the use of a shading net.
