The name also designates the root of this plant, which is tuberous, orange, with a woody and edible texture. The stem is not very perceptive and is located at the insertion point of the leaves, reaching a length of 30 to 50 cm. Carrots are highly recommended by doctors due to their high nutritional value, being rich in beta-carotene, as well as fiber, minerals and antioxidants. In humans, just 100 grams of carrots is enough to meet the daily vitamin needs.Acesso AbertoEngenharia AgronômicaHortaliçasNutriçãoCNPQ::CIENCIAS AGRARIASRelatório de Pesquisa
