- Observation Fodder beet growth was sigmoidal.
- Observation Leaf blades and petioles dominated lag-phase growth.
- Observation Storage root growth dominated the exponential phase.
- Observation Appearance of the 25th leaf marked exponential-phase onset.
- Association Maximum growth rate did not vary with cultivar.
- Intervention effect September- and October-sown crops had the same dry matter yield of 2444 ± 164 g DM m −2.
- Mechanism Cold temperatures slowed canopy development after early sowing.
- Intervention effect November sowing lowered yield by 18% relative to October sowing.
- Intervention effect December sowing lowered yield by 30% relative to October sowing.
- Association Rivage partitioned 5% more dry matter to storage roots than SF Brigadier.
