| Summary: | 32.32 t/ha). Population density affected the fresh and cut 6 lines seed per bed and 197 plants/m 2 . This harvest affected by root size at harvest, the most desirable root affected the quality of the roots in the graded step. at the biggest root size, 14.23 % and 4 lines seed per bed Baby style carrot Daucus carota Mill. Cv. "Caropak" was cm. The longer roots (16.55 cm) were in the treatments with criteria also produced the highest fresh weight, 49.2 t/ha, cut. The percent of graded waste was lowest when harvested harvest parameters in the Rio Grande Valley of Texas. Four length occurred when harvested at 25-35% roots diameter >2 Length of the roots at harvest and projected values for total number of lines per bed and harvested under three root size phases in the baby style carrot process were evaluated. produced the highest waste with 18.14. Lines seed per bed Projections for total waste and marketable yield studied under four population densities, three different the highest cut and graded weight respectively (37.69 t/ha, the three root size at harvest with 21.65% of crowns and tips waste and marketable yield were estimated. Length was weight at 321 plants/m . Percent of cut waste was the same at weight in the baby style carrots process with the highest |
