Abstract:Growers in the Southern Minnesota Beet Sugar Cooperative area are concerned about potassium nutrition. There have been an increasing number of potassium soil test values from production fields that are decreasing into the 100 to 120 mg per kg range. The loss of root yield from the lower soil test values and the loss of root quality if potassium is applied is also a concern. The objective of this study is to determine the effect of nitrogen and potassium application on sugar beet root yield and quality. A study… Show more
