Fertilizer Studies With Sugar Beets in the Arkansas Valley Area, Colo., 1921-28 (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Excerpt from Fertilizer Studies With Sugar Beets in the Arkansas Valley Area, Colo., 1921-28
The highest beet yields were obtained from the 60 and 90-pound applications of plant food in the plots located at Rocky Ford in 1925. These plots had a light coating (about 8 tons per acre), Of well-rotted cattle manure, and as a result the beets utilized more efficiently the somewhat heavier applications Of plant food. At Avondale, in the test which was conducted in 1927 on a fertile field, the beets responded to increased applications of plant food, the 64 pound rate proving to be the best. In 1927 at Rocky Ford, where previous tests indicated the desirability of including some nitrogen in the, fertilizer mixture, the 48 - pound application of plant food produced the best results, while at Lamar the 32-pound application gave the best results. The experiments conducted at Rocky Ford and Lamar in 1928 Showed that the 20-pound application produced beet tonnage yields nearly equal to or. Better than those Obtained with the heavier applications.
The percentage of sucrose in the beet was affected adversely in three out of six tests by the heavier applications Of plant food. This occurrence, however, can only be considered as a trend. In sugar yield, plots on which the lighter applications Of plant food had been made produced in general the better results.
