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...

The establishment of stress resilient sugar beets (Beta vulgaris spp. vulgaris) is an important breeding goal since this cash crop is susceptible to drought and salinity. The genetic diversity in cultivated sugar beets is low and the beet wild relatives are useful genetic resources for tolerance traits. Three wild beet populations (Beta vulgaris spp. maritima) from contrasting environments, Vai...

many fungi cause sugar beet root rot during various stages of the plant growth. among them rhizoctonia spp. induce crown rot, dry rot and violet root rot on sugar beet (whitney and duffos,1986). root rot caused by phytophthora drechsleri has been observed in fields with excessive moisture (habibi,1975). pythium aphanidermatum has been recognized as one of the causal agents of sugar beet, dampin...

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...

Molasses is a significant by-product of sugar beet or sugar cane refining industry. In this work, the effects of storage temperature and packaging on the contents of free amino acids (AAs) in sugar beet and sugar cane molasses after freeze drying were inquired. The effect of different variables such as, temperature (4 and 25˚C) and light (Metallized polypropylene container and Normal polypropyl...

the purpose of this study is determining the factors affecting timeliness of machine operation at different stages of sugar beet production. farm-level data were collected from a sample of 227 sugar beet farmer located in three major districts of farsprovince ofiran: eghleed, marvdasht and fasa, selected by a random sampling method during 2006. for this purpose, the probit model was used. the r...

Molasses formation from beet sugar liquors has had the attention of technologists for more than 100 years. Its formation in the factory is dependent on many factors but probably the most important variables are the effect of some non-sug-ars In decreasing the rate of crystallization and others in increasing the solubility of sucrose in the molasses solution. Since equilib­ rium between crystall...
