the main objective of this study is to investigate the comparative advantage for sugar beet production in iran. sugar beet is one of the main crops which is considered as an important resource for energy supply. the importance of sugar beet (as a sugar source) in iranian household food basket, price fluctuation and consumers' demand for sugar beet, social profitability and the impact of go...

An in sacco mobile bag technique was used to determine the rate and extent of disappearance of unmolassed sugar-beet pulp, soyabean hulls, hay cubes and an oat hull-naked oats mixture (67:33, w/w) in the foregut and total digestive tract of ponies. Ponies were administered naso-gastrically polyester mesh bags containing 350 mg feed, in a Latin square design. Bags were collected at the ileo-caec...

Abstract This study is devoted to evaluation of the effectiveness sugar beet processing strategies, considering factor reducing purity sugar-containing solutions as a result long-term storage raw materials in conditions specific manufacturer - Sergach Sugar Factory. The purpose work formulate recommendations on selection most effective strategy for manufacturers based assessments various strate...

The objective of this digestibility assessment was to determine whether there are significant differences in the digestibility of Roundup Ready (glyphosate-tolerant) and conventional sugar beet, fodder beet, and beet pulp produced from sugar beet varieties when fed to sheep (seven wethers per treatment group). Three experiments were conducted in this assessment. Experiment 1 (35 wethers) compar...

The EU sugar industry has a long tradition of maximising the use of co-products arising from the beet processing operation, all of which are used in productive applications. In fact, sugar factories are not only suppliers of sugar, but also produce other products, such as animal feed. All parts of the beet are used and converted into valuable products, without waste. These products are for the ...

BACKGROUND Modification of leaf traits in sugar beet requires a strong leaf specific promoter. With such a promoter, expression in taproots can be avoided which may otherwise take away available energy resources for sugar accumulation. RESULTS Suppression Subtractive Hybridization (SSH) was utilized to generate an enriched and equalized cDNA library for leaf expressed genes from sugar beet. F...

Sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L. ssp. vulgaris) is one of the most important European crops for both food and sugar production. Crop improvement has been developed to enhance productivity, sugar content or other breeder's desirable traits. The introgression of traits from Crop Wild Relatives (CWR) has been done essentially for lessening biotic stresses constraints, namely using Beta and Patellifoli...

Spent lime is a by-product of the sugar beet sugar purification process. It is generated by heating mined calcium carbon limestone to form calcium oxide and carbon dioxide. These two products are injected into the thick juice (from the sugar beet processing) and reforms calcium carbonate. When the calcium carbonate reforms it captures or adsorbs many of the impurities in the juice and precipita...

in order to assess the heritability of short vegetation period (early maturity) of sugar beet hybrids, an experiment was carried out in randomized complete block (rcb) design with 4 replications in abdolrasoul motahari agricaltural research station of sugar beet seed institute, karaj, iran in 2009. in this research, the heredity of the traits in testcrosses derived from crosses of 18 half sib f...
