Abstract

The field experiments were conducted in the years 1997–1999 in randomized permanent plots (split-block design) with four replications. The first experimental factor was a sugar beet variety: Sonja, Fontana and Evita. The second-rate factor was fertilization, applied in four variants: 1. control (O), 2. potassium at 160 kg K2O per 1 ha (K), 3. potassium, sodium and magnesium in a combination: 160 kg K2O+12 kg Na+14.4 kg Mg per 1 ha (KNaMg), and 4. potassium, sodium and the increased dose of magnesium in a combination: 160 kg K2O+12 kg Na+38.3 kg Mg per 1 ha (KNa3Mg). Prognosis on yield and processing quality of roots was performed based on mineral composition of plant organs at different growth stages. The rate of specific macronutrients uptake was found to be the most useful estimate because of its good correlation with the yield of roots. Meanwhile, the calcium and magnesium contents of plants were the suitable measures to determine both quantity and quality features of the investigated varieties. These cations significantly increased sugar content, although they negatively affected root yield. Prognosis on sugar yield on the basis of mineral composition of plants or based on specific nutrient uptake was only feasible with the most productive var. Fontana, which showed significant relationships between sugar and root yields (R2= 60%).
