Isn't this the same thing as sugar beet? Eden used to have this as I grew it one year, very large, very sweet, terrific animal fodder, Terry

You are looking for a type of fodder beet. The closest I know is the one available from Eden Seeds Yellow Eckendorf is a Mangel and wurzel is an old english word, probably for beet or turnip.
