BACKGROUND Owing to the changing climate, narrow crop rotation, and changes in insecticide application practice, sugar beet weevil (SBW) (Bothynoderes punctiventris Germar) has become the most important economic pest in sugar beet. To develop alternative control methods, an area-wide (AW) control program using aggregation pheromones was implemented over 4 years on an area of 6 and 14.8 km2 in e...

in order to study the effective factors in sugar beet production, evaluation of technical, allocative and economical efficiency of sugar beet producers in bardsir city, 150 sugar beet producers were questioned by classified method. data were collected through questionnaire forms filled by producers in 2004-05. the stochastic frontier production and cost function method were used to analyze the ...

The present experiment aimed at increasing orange peel and sugar beet pulp protein content through solid-state fermentation by Trichoderma reesei and Trichoderma viride. In vitro digestibility and changes in the chemical composition of the fermented products were determined after seven days of fungal cultivation using gas production tests. The cultivation of T. reesei and T. viride on orange pe...

Improving the chemical and physical properties of saline soils is crucial for sustainable production sugar beet efficient processing sugar. Here, impacts application treated filter cake on biofortification under soil losses into molasses during were evaluated first time. The significantly reduced K%, Na%, α-amino-N while enhanced sucrose content quality index root juice. Consequently, loss perc...

in order to study the reason for the prominent increase of the average of sugar content in sugar beet produced in iran in 2007 and finding the relation of this increase with climatic parameters, chenaran sugar factory district was chosen. due to precise and reliable statistical data of sugar factory during the campaign and weather data, chenaran sugar factory was chosen for this investigation. ...

in this research, the effect of crops such as corn, wheat, sugar beet and clover as previous crop on incidence of leaf and crown wart disease of sugar beet was studied. in the first year, corn, wheat, clover and sugar beet were planted as previous crop in a randomized complete block design with four replications. the amounts of turnover of nitrogen to the soil due to crop residue and their effe...

Typically, low-pressure sprayers are used to uniformly apply pre- and post-emergent herbicides to control weeds in crop rows. An innovative machine for weed control in inter-row and intra-row areas, with a unique combination of inter-row cultivation tooling and intra-row band spraying for six rows and an electro-hydraulic side-shift frame controlled by a GPS system, was developed and evaluated....

Aim: The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of introducing Sugar Beet bulb as a cheap substitute for grains in rations formulated for sheep fattening. Materials and Methods: This trial was conducted at the Experimental unit of Rural Development and extension center, Faculty of animal production, University of Gezira. Twenty four Sudanese desert lambs (Ashgur ecotype) were purch...
