German to English translations [PRO] Science - Agriculture / Beet | | German term or phrase: Nachzüchtung | Context:
Dass allerdings bald auch andere Rü¬benzüchter von der hohen Qualität der Kleinwanzlebener Rübe über¬zeugt waren, zeigt zum Beispiel eine Anzeigenseite in der Zeitschrift des deutschen Zuckerhandels von 1885: Hier warben 11 von 14 Saat¬züchtern mit Nachzüchtungen der Kleinwanzlebener Rübe. Auf diese Trittbrettfahrer reagierte damals die Zuckerfabrik Kleinwanzleben, vorm. Rabbethge und Giesecke AG in ihren eigenen Anzeigen mit dem nachdrücklichen Hinweis, dass nur die original mit dem Kleinwanz¬lebener Warenzeichen verplombten Saatgutsäcke auch die »Kleinwanz¬lebener Original«-Rübensamen enthielten. |

| | new generation | Explanation: My Fachwörterbuch Biologie translates nachzüchten as "breed a new generation"
Fortunately, those sugar beet breeders—among them Robert T. Lewellen at Salinas and Leonard W. Panella and co-investigators in Fort Collins, Colo.—had never let down their guard against rhizomania. They now have developed new-generation sugar beets that may hold their own against the new isolate.
The scientists expect to make initial supplies of seed from the superior beets available to other sugar beet breeders and seed companies later this year.

8 mins confidence:   cultivation
Explanation: Da es sich um Pflanzen handelt, bin ich der Meinung, dass "nachzüchten" hier sehr passend ist. "Cultivate" ist nicht nur "züchten", sondern auch "veredeln, verbessern" - figurativ: cultivate

nachzüchten = cultivate im ersten Satz. Mea culpa!
