water and soil salinity in some regions of isfahan, east azerbaijan, and west azerbaijan provinces and also other parts of the iran are the main hindrance for crop planting. seeds of the tolerant crops to salinity such as cotton and sugar beet may have optimal germination and give acceptable performance if they become far from salt accumulation areas. to evaluate the effects of different planti...

The objectives of this study were to determine the physicochemical characteristics, sensory acceptability and microbial quality of fermented fresh water fish (Betok-Anabas testudineus Bloch) locally known as Wadi Betok, which was prepared by using 15% w/w salt and addition of palm (Arenga pinata) sugar (0, 5, 10 and 15% w/w) and lime (Citrus aurantifolia) juice (0, 2, 4 and 6% w/w). An interact...

water scarcity in arid and semi-arid climate of iran has made deficit irrigation as a strategy for optimal water use and conservation in agricultural sector. this study aimed at evaluating the effects of water-deficit stress and n fertilizer levels on sugar beet performance. the study was conducted in split block design based on randomized complete block design arrangement. the row factor consi...

BACKGROUND Intermediates from processing sugar beets are considered an attractive feedstock for ethanol fermentation due to their high fermentable sugar content. In particular, medium prepared from raw sugar beet juice seems to be suitable for use in fermentation processes, but it is microbiologically unstable and requires sterilization. RESULTS This study investigates the effect of ozone tre...

for determination of irrigated sugar beet crop evaporation (etc) and water consumption a field experiment was conducted for three years (1991 to 1993)  in kabotar-abad agricultural experiment station. the climate was semi-arid according to gossen method with mean annual precipitation of 90 to 110 mm. the soil was esfahan series with a silty clay loam texture. the crop evapotranspiration was mea...
