RESPONSE OF SUGAR BEET TO IRRIGATION INTERVALS, SULPHUR APPLICATION AND NITROGEN FERTILIZATION
MAHER AUD ALAH KHATER;
Abstract
Two field experiments were conducted during 1996/97 and
1997 /98 seasons, at the Experimental Farm of Faculty of Agriculture, Saba Basha, Alexandria University. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of irrigation intervals, sulphur application and nitrogen fertilization on growth, yield and quality of sugar beet (Beta vulgaris, L.). The experimental design in each of the two experiments was split plot with four replications. The sugar beet cultivar Peleno (genetic monogenn seeds) was used in both experiments.
The first experiment
This experiment was carried out to study the effect of irrigation intervals and nitrogen fertilization on growth, yield and yield characters of sugar beet. Seeds were sown on 26"" October in 1996/97 and 1997/98 seasons. The four irrigation intervals were 20, 30, 40 and 50 days and manged at random in the main plots. The five levels of nitrogen fertilizer were at the rate of zero, 30, 60, 90 and 120 kg N/faddan in the form of urea (46.5% N) and arranged at random within the sub-plot. Nitrogen fertilizer levels were applied once after about 4 weeks from planting.
The second experiment
This experiment was carried out to study the effect of three sulphur rates and different forms of nitrogen fertilization on growth, yield and yield characters of sugar beet. In this experiment, sugar beet seeds were also sown on 26" October in 1996/97 and 1997/98 seasons. The three
