in order to evaluate efficiency of nitrogen fertilizers consumption in a sugar beet monogerm hybrid variety of zarghan, a field experiment was conducted in a loamy soil during 2007 in the research farm of sugar beet seed institute located in karaj. five levels of nitrogen fertilizers including 0 (check), 120, 160, 200 and 240 kg/ha of net nitrogen from urea fertilizer (46 percent of pure nitrog...

Sugar and fodder beet were grown in three years to assess the potential sugar yield for ethanol production in the region. Fresh weight root yields ranged from 70-85 t/ha for sugar beet and 55-136 t/ha for fodder beet. Sugar contents averaged 15% for sugar beet and 10117o for fodder beet resulting in sugar yields of 10-12 t/ha and 5-12 t/ha respectively. Consistently higher sugar yield from suga...

drip irrigation is the most efficient technique known for improving irrigation water management. a two-year study was conducted to determine the effects of drip and furrow irrigation methods on yield and quality of sugar beet in north of khuzestan. in the first year, the experimental design was a completely randomized block design with three replications. treatments were, three drip irrigation ...

introduction: weed competition is one of the major factors which limit sugar beet production in the world. weed – crop interactions are based on competition for water, nutrients and light and allelopathic effects may also play a small role. in sugar beet weed interference, all these factors are important too, but the light is of prime importance. due to the fact that a lot of weeds can grow abo...

in semiarid regions of iran, one of the crop production management methods is delayed irrigation after emergence. this is due to simultaneous water requirement of cereal and spring season crops. a field study was conducted in kabootarabad research station to investigate the effect of delayed irrigation on root yield, quality and growth trend using a rcb with four replications. the irrigation tr...

sugar, which can be extracted from sugar cane and sugar beet, is one of the most important ingredients of food. conducting more research to increase the extraction efficiency of sugar is necessary due to high production of sugar beet and its numerous processing units in northern khorasan province. in this research, the effect of temperature, time and the frequency of ultrasonic waves on mechani...

models can be used to predict crop yield and inputs levels such as fertilizer, in order to conduct programming for the management of probable future crisis. in this study, based on the model, the effect of nitrogen fertilizer on dry matter partitioning in shoot and root of sugar beet was predicted. for model construction, data were collected from an experiment conducted in karaj city in 2001. i...

powdery mildew of sugar beet is a common disease in many sugar beet growing areas causing root yield and sugar content reduction. the aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of different irrigation methods on powdery mildew severity in sugar beet. eight susceptible and resistant commercial cultivars were evaluated under sprinkler and furrow irrigation systems in a randomized complete bloc...

this study was carried out in lorestan silakhoor plain  during 2001-2002. twenty soil properties from 25 profiles were evaluated. profiles studied were entisols and inceptisols. moreover, soil classification resulted in 5 subgroups, 8 families and 17 soil series. in the study, parametric land evaluation method was used. the strong correlation between the land index and observed yield (r = 0.55)...
