determination of the amount of sugar in sugar beet is usually accomplished by polarimetric method in sugar industry. this method is not accurate due to impurities such as sodium, potassium and amino-nitrogen that are present and might cause some errors in the evaluation of the technical quality of sugar beet. in this research, 7309 samples of sugar beet from two semi- arid county, isfahan and c...

for determination of water stress effects in different growth stages of sugar beet and optimum water usage on quantity and quality of sugar beet, this study was performed using randomized complete blocks design in factorial experiment with 12 treatments and 4 replications from 1999 to 2001 in agricultural research center of hamadan. the first factor was non-irrigation in 3 stages of growth (s1-...

the main purpose of this study was to measure the level of technical efficiency of sugar beet producers and determination of factors affecting it. a sample of 144 producers in the main sugar beet growing areas of hamedan, nahavand, malayer and asadabad were selected by two stage cluster sampling method. data were collected through interviews during farming year of 2001-2002.technical efficiency...

Sugar juices in the production of beet sugar contain complex varieties of colored materials that have not been identified completely. Color of the sugar depends the color of juices from which sugar is produced. The mechanisms concerning color formation in beet sugar processing are complicated due to many parameters involved. The main mechanisms related to the color formation during purification...

The influence of salinity on the different polyamine fractions (free, conjugated, and bound) was compared in a natrophilic halophyte (Beta vulgaris L. cv. IC) and a salt sensitive glycophyte (Nicotiana rustica L. cv. Basmas). Low-level salinity (25 mM NaCl) and high salinity (150 and 50 mM NaCl for sugar beet and tobacco, respectively) were supplied in hydroponics. Under low salinity shoot dry ...
