in this study, the performance of different cultivation methods on sugar beet fields was evaluated. eight treatments were considered: a) use of a rolling cultivator twice during the growing season; b) use of a rolling cultivator three times during the growing season; c) use of a crescent cultivator twice during the growing season; d) use of a crescent cultivator three times during the growing s...

This study aimed to analyze the seasonal dynamics of sugar beet leaf and root yield quality in different plant populations nitrogen fertilization rate. The field trials were set as four planting densities (60,000 140,000 plants ha?1) three spring rates: no fertilization, pre-sowing (45 kg ha?1 N), with top dressing (99 N 2014 85.5 2015. changes growth done measuring area (LA), index (LAI), spec...

this study was conducted to determine the appropriate irrigation interval on the basis of cumulative water evaporation from standard evaporation pan (class a) and to find out the effects of irrigation regimes on growth indices and on qualitative and quantitative yields of sugar beet. the experiment was conducted in 2005 at the lavark agricultural experiment station fields, isfahan university of...

In a 3-year experiment (2002-2004), five N rates (0, 60, 120, 180, 240 kg N ha-1) were applied to sugar beets arranged in a Randomized Complete Block design with six replications. Experimentation took place under the semi-arid, irrigated conditions of central Greece. The aim of this work was to study the late season response of sugar beet crop to N fertilization as assessed by non-destructive m...

the study was conducted during 2002- 2007 in the first and last stage of a four-year rotation (sugar beet, forage maize, onion, wheat and sugar beet) at research station of irrigation and drainage rudasht. in each year, four treatments of organic fertilizers (25 and 50 t/ha urban compost and 15 and 30 t/ha sewage sludge) with a control (no organic fertilizer) were studied in a randomized comple...

in order to study the effect of irrigation water salinity on quality and quantity of sugar beet (beta vulgaris) at four growth stages, an experiment was conducted in rudasht salinity and drainage research center from 2004-2006. in this experiment, 11 different water salinity treatments and three sugar beet cultivars (ic, 7233 & 7233-p29*msc2) were considered using split plot design based on ran...

considered to be the cleanest liquid fuel, bioethanol can be a reliable alternative to fossil fuels. it is produced by fermentation of sugar components of plant materials. the common onions are considered to be a favorable source of fermentation products as they have high sugar contents as well as contain various nutrients. this study focused on the effective production of ethanol from an endem...

BACKGROUND Variations in sugar yield due to genotypic qualities of feedstock are largely undescribed for pilot-scale ethanol processing. Our objectives were to compare glucose and xylose yield (conversion and total sugar yield) from straw of five winter wheat cultivars at three enzyme loadings (2.5, 5 and 10 FPU g-1 dm pretreated straw) and to compare particle size distribution of cultivars aft...

The potential of fungal pretreatment to improve fermentable sugar yields from wheat straw or Miscanthus was investigated. We assessed 63 fungal strains including 53 white-rot and 10 brown-rot fungi belonging to the Basidiomycota phylum in an original 12 day small-scale solid-state fermentation (SSF) experiment using 24-well plates. This method offers the convenience of one-pot processing of sam...
