Effect of Varying Levels of Nitrogen and Plant Densities on the Root Yield of Two Varieties of Sugarbeet (Beta Vulgaris L.)

Abstract

An experiment conducted at the Haryana Agricultural University, Hissar during the Rabi season of 1974-75 showed that for higher yield of sugarbeet roots, crop should bo fertilized with 120 Kg N/ha with a plant population of 1,50,000 plants/ha under Hissar conditions (sandy loam soil with poor status of nitrogen). Any of the varieties, viz; Maribo Magnapoly or Ramonskaya-06 can be profitably cultivated for better returns under agro-climatic conditions of this tract.
