Large amounts of waste biomass are generated in sugar factories from the processing of sugar beets. After diffusion with hot water to draw the sugar from the beet pieces, a wet material remains called pulp. In this study, waste sugar beet pulp biomass was enzymatically depolymerized, and the obtained hydrolyzates were subjected to fermentation processes. Bioethanol, biomethane, and biohydrogen ...

this study was conducted to determine the effect of variable nitrogen supply on yield parameters of two sugar beet varieties, as well as on biomass allocation to different parts of sugar beet plant at safi-abad agric. res. center during 2003-4 and 2004-5. five nitrogen rates (0, 60, 120, 180 and 240 kgha-1) and two monogerm sugar beet varieties (shirin and rasol) arranged as factorial in a rand...

Growth response of sugar beet plants to drought stress applied at different growth stages has been investigated. Cessation of watering imposed moderate water stress and resulted in the reduction of the relative water content of young and old leaves maximally by 6%. However, water content in taproot was more drastically decreased than in the shoot. Water withholding reduced dry ma�er accumulatio...

Strausbaugh, C. A., Wenninger, E. J., and Eujayl, I. A. 2014. Control of curly top in sugar beet with seed and foliar insecticides. Plant Dis. 98:10751080. Curly top in sugar beet is a serious problem that is caused by Beet curly top virus and other closely related species and transmitted by the beet leafhopper. In order to find a means of reducing curly top in sugar beet, 15 combinations of in...

Beet necrotic yellow vein virus is the etiological agent of one of the most devastating sugar beet viral diseases: rhizomania. This review describes the molecular biology of the rhizomania disease, the functions of the BNYVV encoded proteins, the consequences of their expression as well as the biology of the BNYVV vector, Polymyxa betae. Root proliferation is an important part of the well-known...

in order to study the possibility of control of heterodera schachtii  in sugarbeet fields through integration of rotation with non- host crops and resistant catch crops and their effects on quantitative and qualitative traits of sugarbeet, this study was started from 2002 for three years in esfahan province. the experiments were carried out in a randomized complete block design with eight treat...

Sugar beet pulp is a by-product from the processing of sugar beets into sugar. Beet pulp is extracted grounded sugar beet. It is used as livestock feed and it can be fed fresh, dried and ensiled (fermented beet pulp). Sugar beet pulp is a by-product from the processing of sugar beet which is used as fodder for cattle and other livestock. It is supplied either as dried flakes or as compressed pe...

for evaluation of efficiency and yield per surface unit with using the 56 sugar beet producer countries data in year 2005 an econometric model based on cols method has presented. with this model maximum sugar beet production efficiencies considering the harvested area and annual rainfall measure and level of mechanization has been determined. in total iran with production efficiency 0.43 is in ...

short growing season in cold regions is an important factor in not achieving a maximum root yield in sugar beet crop. in an investigation on possible ways to limit the effect of short season culture on the crop, six harvest dates and three sugar beet varieties were considered. the experiment was conducted as a factorial with randomized complete block design in three replications, from 1996-1998...

sugar beet is one of the main crops in iranthat provides primary materials for sugar industries and so, its economic aspects are very important. one of these aspects is employment; it has begged to draw policy maker attentions. nevertheless, there hasnot been any survey study on this matter in iranyet. in this study, the current value of labor use in sugar beet cultivation (direct employment) i...
