in order to investigate the impact of government policies on supply, cropping area and yield of sugar beet during 1981-2003, nominal rate of protection (nrp) was applied as a variable to persuade government’s policies in this study. results showed that despite of its negative impacts on cropping area, the nrp has positive effects on supply and yield of sugar beet iniran. moreover, real price of...

cover type of on–farm storages has an important role in reducing the freezing damage and respiration of beet roots in the pile. this experiment was conducted in 2006 in karaj region in order to evaluate the effects of cover types of storage on the mass and sugar losses of both topped and untopped beets. the experimental design was a split plot factorial in rcbd with three replications. the main...

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 ...

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...

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...

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...

All energy scenarios show a shift toward an increased percentage of renewable energy sources, including biomass. This study gives an overview of water footprints (WFs) of bioenergy from 12 crops that currently contribute the most to global agricultural production: barley, cassava, maize, potato, rapeseed, rice, rye, sorghum, soybean, sugar beet, sugar cane, and wheat. In addition, this study in...

Commercial sugarbeet yields range between 50 and 100 t clean beets/ha, with sugar concentrations of 17 to 18% on fresh weight (8 to 18 t sugar/ha; Milford, 2006). For 2010, beet yields in the U.S. averaged 62.2 t/ha. However, in the Imperial Valley (predominant cattle feeding region for the state of California), clean beet yields averaged 98.8 t/ha (USDA, 2010); 9 Imperial Valley beet growers t...
