Abstract

Optimization of plant nutrition is one of main requirements in sugar beet production. The evaluation of nutritional status should be conducted at early stages of plant growth. The obtained results showed that in the period from the 4–6 leaves stage to the beginning of July, sugar beet plants non-fertilized with potassium produced lower biomass of both leaves and taproots. The main cause of this state was low content and uptake of both potassium and nitrogen. The data could be of diagnostic importance for yield prognosis of sugar beet taproots, provided that water conditions during summer vegetation were optimal. In the described experiment, such conditions occurred on the irrigated plots.
