the main objective of this study was to develop an optimal cropping pattern for sugar beet growers in fasa district (fars province) and to investigate sugar beet importance in cropping pattern. regarding the effect of risk on producer's decision, two risk sources including price and yield were considered. data was obtained from fasa district producers in 2008. in this study multi-objective...

saving in irrigation water is important in the early season of sugar beet. the effect of early season deficit irrigation on the sugar beet growth indexes was investigated in kabotarabad agricultural research station (esfahan) in 1998. the soil texture was silty clay and the experiment design was randomized complete block with 4 relications. six irrigation regimes were applied after. 1) 100 mm (...

BACKGROUND During production of sugar beet (Beta vulgaris) seeds in greenhouses, workers frequently develop allergic symptoms. The aim of this study was to identify and characterize possible allergens in sugar beet pollen. METHODS Sera from individuals at a local sugar beet seed producing company, having positive SPT and specific IgE to sugar beet pollen extract, were used for immunoblotting....

introduction sugar beet (beta vulgaris l.) as the second most important world’s sugar source after sugarcane is one of the major industrial crops. the presence of weeds in sugar beet fields, especially at early growth stages, results in a substantial decrease in the crop yield. it is very important to efficiently eliminate weeds at early growing stages. the first step of precision weed control ...

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...

to determine sugar beet water requirement and the effect of changing the quantity of applied water on some production components, a study was carried out in ekbatan agricultural research station of hamedān, iran in four years (1994-1997) during which optimum water requirement, root and sugar yield, water use efficiency on the basis of root yield, sugar percentage and water use efficiency on the...

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 structure and function of the plant microbiome is driven by plant species and prevailing environmental conditions. Effectuated by breeding efforts, modern crops diverge genetically and phenotypically from their wild relatives but little is known about consequences for the associated microbiota. Therefore, we studied bacterial rhizosphere communities associated with the wild beet B. vulgaris...
