Abstract
A three-year field experiment was established in order to assess the effect of potassium, sodium and magnesium fertilization (K, K + Na + 1 Mg, K + Na + 2 Mg) on the content and uptake of macronutrients by three sugar beet varieties (Nilla, Merlin, Kristall). Potassium rate amounted to 160 kg K2O/ha. In two fertilization treatments sodium and magnesium were applied additionally: 12 kg Na + 24 kg MgO (K + Na + 1 Mg) and 12 kg Na + 51 kg MgO (K + Na + 2 Mg)ha-1. The differences between varieties depended on weather conditions over a vegetation period. Magnesium and sodium uptake depended on the interaction between sugar beet varieties and fertilizers. Yields of roots and sugar of the Nilla and Kristall varieties correlated positively with magnesium uptake, but negatively with sodium and calcium uptake. Nitrogen uptake influenced yield of tops, mainly.
