Abstract
The aim of the study was to assess the effect of foliar application of titanium ascorbate on yield and quality of sugar beet roots. In the three consecutive growing seasons (1998–2001), nine field trials were set up in the Wielkopolska and Kujawy regions. A comparison was made between controls (NPK) and objects receiving additionally two titanium treatments: at the 6th leaf stage and repeated 10 days later. A roots yield increase of 9% and recoverable sugar yield of 12% has been observed as the affect of titanium ascorbate application, irrespective of location. This fertilization has not influenced the content of molasses forming substances.
