Red beet is a vegetable which is characterized by a high storage durability. For this it can be used and consumed throughout the all year. Therefore, it is very important to know the dynamics of changes in the content of individual ingredients in the subsequent months of storage. The two croppers of red bee: Boro F1 (spherical root shape) and Regulski Cylinder (cylindrical root shape) were included in this study. The main purpose was to assess the dynamics of changes of selected components in analyzed plant, during the storage period. Moreover, particular attention was paid to the content of ingredients which have a beneficial effect on the quality of red beet. The antiradical activity, content of betalaine pigments and the dry mass were evaluated. The cropper of Regulski Cylinder was chosen as a cultivar recommended for storage. It has been characterized by the smallest decrease in antiradical activity and an increase in the content of betalain pigments during the 5-month storage period.
