crop yield estimation is one of the most important parameters for information and resources management in precision agriculture. this information is employed for optimizing the field inputs for successive cultivations. in the present study, the feasibility of sugar beet yield estimation by means of machine vision was studied. for the field experiments stripped images were taken during the growt...

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 conducted to determine the appropriate irrigation interval on the basis of cumulative water evaporation from standard evaporation pan (class a) and to find out the effects of irrigation regimes on growth indices and on qualitative and quantitative yields of sugar beet. the experiment was conducted in 2005 at the lavark agricultural experiment station fields, isfahan university of...

to determine the effects of different irrigation and salinity levels on qualitative and quantitative yield of sugar beet, an experiment was conducted for two years (2006-07)at torogh agricultural research center, mashhad, iran, using two sprinkler systems. each of the two irrigation systems was connected to two water sources with 1 and 6 ds/m salinity. irrigation was performed via two sprinkler...

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...

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 ...

In Europe, the framework for sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.) production was subject to considerable changes and for the future it is expected that sugar beet cultivation might concentrate around the sugar factories for economic reasons. Based on data from a national sugar beet farmers' survey and multi-year crop rotation trials, the effects of cropping interval (number of years in between two sub...
