BACKGROUND: The use of agricultural waste as organic fertilizers is important for soil fertility and plants health production. OBJECTIVES: The aims of this study were to examine the effects of different types and rates of vermicompost on physiological and morphological properties of lettuce. METHODS: Present study was conducted acco...

cellulose is a raw material which is extensively used in the manufacture of paints, papers, textiles, agricultural products and cosmetics. the waste of sugar beet pulp after titration is a source of cellulose. the current study was carried out to study the possibility of cellulose production from sugar beet pulp waste at titration stage as a 3×3×2 factorial study on the basis of a randomized co...

this experiment was conducted to evaluate eight new sugar beet genotypes with different drought tolerance responses to three irrigation schemes (including normal irrigation and early season and continuous stressed) in motahari research station of sugar beet seed institute (sbsi),karaj,iranduring 2005-2006. the study was accomplished in a split plot design (irrigation schemes and genotypes as ma...

A two-year experiment was carried out to study the effects of pollinator line characteristicson the quantity and quality of monogerm hybrid seed production in sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.)and select proper pollinator for five promising sugar beet cytoplasmic male sterile lines (CMSs)during 2012-2013 growing seasons. In this study, four diploid pollinator lines were crossed byfive CMSs of sugar ...

the purpose of this study was to determine the plant density of sugar beet fields in qazvin region using satellite images and remote sensing techniques. the plant density can be used to estimate the pre-harvest sugar beet yield and as a result the proper management of agricultural and industrial processes involved in sugar production. satellite data can be used to remove the cost and time of co...

Evaluation of Rhizoctonia zeae as a potential biological control option for fungal root diseases of sugar beet" (2015). Abstract Several common root diseases routinely damage sugar beet in Nebraska and other production areas of the Central High Plains, and it is becoming more common to find fields infested simultaneously with multiple pathogens. Owing to the shortage of available fungicides for...

Prediction of agricultural yields is a challenging task that demands fusion of knowledge from different areas such as data mining, statistics and agriculture. This paper shows that data mining techniques can be successfully applied to agricultural data analysis. Results that we present are gained on the data set that contains monthly measurements of different environmental parameters and annual...

BACKGROUND Pectin-rich wastes, such as citrus pulp and sugar beet pulp, are produced in considerable amounts by the juice and sugar industry and could be used as raw materials for biorefineries. One possible process in such biorefineries is the hydrolysis of these wastes and the subsequent production of ethanol. However, the ethanol-producing organism of choice, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, is not...
