in order to study the effects of farm yard manure (fym), sulfate of potassium (sop) and boric acid on quality and quantity of sugar beet, an experiment was conducted in split plot factorial with four replications during 3 years (1999-2001) in bardsir- kerman. the fym was the main plot in 3 levels: 0, 10 and 20 ton.ha-1. sop was applied at levels, 0 ,75 and 150 kg.ha-1  and boric acid at levels ...

for optimum utilization of saline soil and water resources, various methods have been proposed. application of best management practices and selection of salt tolerant cultivars are two important issues. selection and breeding for salt tolerant cultivars require potential genetic materials, screening and evaluation of them in laboratory and field experiments. starting in 2000, 80 sugar beet gen...

in ordet to investigate economic efficiency of five cultural systems in sugar beet crop, including high input, medium input  low input , high  and medium inputs without 3 times irrigation after emergence, an experiment was conducted over  two years  (2002-2003) in agricultural and natural resources research center of khorasan. these systems were analysed by marginal analysis and  linear program...

a comparative study was conducted to find a reliable and simple method for evaluation of resistance of sugar beet genotypes to rhizoctonia root and crown rot. for this, 12 sugar beet genotypes were used in greenhouse, field and in vitro experiments. the field experiment was performed in micro plots (1×1×2 meter) using randomized complete block design with 4 replications. prior to planting, the ...

low water consumption in autumn sugar beet sowing is an important strategy for sugar beet production, especially in arid regions like iran. for the development of a new monogerm triploid hybrid called sharif which is bolting tolerant and suitable for autumn sowing in khuzestan province, a breeding program was started in 1994 and continued for16 years. this program had two stages; the first stag...
