The Effect of Boron and Zinc Applications on Yield and Quality of Sugar Beet (Beta vulgaris L.)

Abstract

The aim of this study was to determine the effects of different rates of Zn and B on root yield, sugar content, and sugar yield of sugar beet, grown in Altınekin and Seydişehir locations in 1999. Zn and B were applied at four different rates (Zn₀ = 0 kg/da, Zn₁ = 1 kg/da, Zn₂ = 2 kg/da, Zn₃ = 4 kg/da and B₀ = 0 kg/da, B₁ = 0.5 kg/da, B₂ = 1 kg/da, B₃ = 2 kg/da). It was found that individual effects of Zn and B and their interaction (Zn x B) on root yield and sugar yield were found significant (P<0.01) in both locations. However, the lowest added effect of Zn x B interaction was statistically significant in Altınekin location. In this study the highest root and sugar yield, were obtained with 1 kg Zn / da + 0 kg B / da in Altınekin, and 1 kg Zn / da + 2 kg B / da in Seydişehir locations.
