Influence of sugar and fodder beet pollinators on the productivity of their hybrids

Растениевъдни науки, 2015
With the liquidation of the sugar-production industry the growing of sugar beet in Bulgaria has been limited to production of rich forage. The modern varieties are hybrids of monogerm MS-lines with diploid and tetraploid sugar and fodder beet ...

Effects of Dairy Cow Diet Supplementation with Carrots, Red Beet and Fodder beet on Cow Blood Serum Carotene Concentration and Milk Production

Scientific Papers Animal Science and Biotechnologies, 2023
Provision of fat-soluble antioxidants necessary for cow organism and milk synthesis depends on their concentration in the diet. Administration of the natural vs synthetic forms of carotene and other  bioactive components  has the potential of better bio ...

Water use efficiency of fodder beet crops

Proceedings of the New Zealand Grassland Association, 2014
Abstract In New Zealand, summer rainfall is unpredictable and usually insufficient to meet crop water requirements. The impact of water availability on yield potential of fodder beet (Beta vulgaris L.) is unknown. A single year, single site replicated field experiment investigating biomass production, water use (WU) and water use efficiency (WUE) was ...

Integrating glycerol and straw into digestate applications: Microbial biomass and crop responses under field conditions

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract Global food production relies on inorganic nitrogen to meet population consumption demands. However, synthetic fertilizer production currently relies heavily on fossil fuels. Anaerobic digestate offers an alternative source of nutrients because it is produced from organic matter.

Effects of organic amendments on productivity, nitrogen uptake, and protein content in pea–barley intercrops

Agronomy Journal, Volume 118, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
Abstract Cereal‐legume intercropping combined with organic amendments is considered to be a promising technique to improve crop productivity and efficiency in land use. The intercropping performance is influenced by pedoclimatic conditions, crop combinations, and crop management.

Influence of fodder beet cultivars on the life history traits of Spodoptera exigua [PDF]

Journal of Crop Protection
The beet armyworm, Spodoptera exigua (Hubner) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae), poses a significant threat to beet plants, adversely affecting their yield. This study assessed the demographic parameters of this pest on seven commercial fodder beet cultivars ...

EFFECT OF DIFFERENT LEVELS OF POTASSIUM FERTILIZATION ON GROWTH, YIELD QUALITY AND DIGESTIBILITY OF FODDER BEET BASED DIETS by SHEEP [PDF]

Journal of Animal and Poultry Production, 2002
The present investigation was carried out at Agriculture Research Station and Animal Production Research Institute Gemmieza, Gharbia Governorate during 1998/1999 and 1999/2000 seasons to study the response of fodder beet (Beta vulgaris) to potassium ...

Performance of fodder beet cultivars in the South Island

Proceedings of the New Zealand Grassland Association, 2014
Abstract More than 11 cultivars of fodder beet are marketed to farmers, but with little refereed data on differences in potential yield. Trials were established in spring 2012 to evaluate the yield, dry matter content of bulbs, and proportion out of the ground of 13 beet cultivars, at four sites in the South Island.

A Systematic Approach to Field Testing of Biological Products for Horticulture Is Required to Improve Food Security

Journal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Food security challenges require immediate action to increase food production. Many biological products derived from plant, animal or microbial sources claim they sustainably increase yield, but there are concerns about biosecurity to be investigated before their introduction to the field.

The Amounts and Forms of Nitrogen Leached From Autumn and Winter Forage Crops Grazed by Dairy Cows in Southern New Zealand

New Zealand Journal of Agricultural Research, Volume 69, Issue 1, February 2026.
A 3‐year grazing study was undertaken to quantify nitrogen (N) leaching losses from forage crops that were grazed by dairy cows in late autumn (fodder beet, Beta vulgaris; FB) or winter (FB and kale, Brassica oleracea). The practice of mechanical lifting instead of autumn grazing of FB was also evaluated as an option for mitigating N leaching.
