Fertilization Level

Soil tillage and fertilization level are important in the system of agro-technical measures that increase soil fertility and sugar beets productivity. Today the cultivation of this crop requires a great deal of expense, therefore, there is a need for a wider study of the use of cheap soil cultivation, soil protection, energy-saving soil tillage technologies and appropriate ferti-lization levels. Under western Forest-Steppe of Ukraine conditions, investigations were conducted on dark grey podzolic light loamy soils where the influence of tillage models and fertilization levels on the formation of sugar beets root crops was studied. Shallow no-plow tillage of the soil on 14-16 cm is expedient to use as a main tillage under sugar beets. Under favorable weather and climatic conditions, it can provide yielding capacity at the level of deep fall plowing. The use of shallow no-plow tillage helped to increase the yielding capacity of sugar beet roots relative to plowing by 28-30 cm for 1.3 t / ha and the biological sugar output – for 0.2 t / ha. Then the sugar content was by 0.1% higher in the application of deep fall plowing on 28-30 cm. The optimization of the system of sugar beets fertilization allows ensuring the growth of the yielding capacity of root crops. It is established that the application of fertilizer norm N300P225K350 provides the yielding capacity at the level of 90 t / ha. The sugar content of root crops at the given fertilizer rate was the lowest in the experiment - 16.5 – 16.6%. Thanks to the high yielding capacity of root crops in terms of N300P225K350, the sugar harvesting was the highest and depending on the method of basic soil tillage was 14.95 – 14.79 t / ha. That is in 3.2 times more as to the control, in 1.3 times more than the norm of N180P135K210 and in 1.1 more than the fertilization level N240P180K280.

The studies were carried out under the conditions of a microfield experiment on typical chernozem (Belgorod region) with two soils (pH 5.0 and 6.5) with the addition of urea (enriched in 15N, 17.1 at. %) And effluents from a pig-breeding complex (PSC) at doses of 6 and 12 g N/m2 (against the background of phosphate and potash fertilizers, P6K6). The largest amount of nitrogen was consumed by sugar beets with the combined introduction of CCA and urea (25.8 g N/m2). When the soil was acidified to pHsalt 5.0, the consumption of nitrogen in mineral fertilizers decreased by 15-18%, soil ni-trogen – by 21-52%, and waste nitrogen – by 16%. At the same time, the immobilization of nitrogen in the fertilizer decreased by 13-18%, and the loss of gaseous nitrogen compounds increased by 47-108%. The effluent from the pig-breeding complex increased the immobilization of nitrogen in mineral fertilizers (by 38-46%) and reduced gaseous nitrogen losses (by 22-44%). The highest stability and productivity (root crop yield 1654 g/m2, tops yield 239 g/m2) was exhibited by agrophytocenosis on soil with pH 6.5 with the combined application of CCA and urea. When the soil solution was acid-ified to pH 5.0, the yield of beet root crops decreased by 30% and the yield of tops – by 24%. On soil with pH 5.0, fertilizers increased the sugar content in root crops by 0.2-1.3%, on soil with pH 6.5, they decreased by 1.3-2.0%.

The aim of the study was to evaluate the usefulness of sugar beet for biogas production, taking into account the duration time of storage and sugar content in the roots. The research has included analysis of methane and biogas yield of sugar beet. The relations between the sugar content in the roots and the length of storage period and the course of the methane fermentation process were determined. Sugar beets with sugar content of 17.6% and 19.6% were used for this experiment. In order to analyse the fermentation process, the fresh beets and the beets stored in flexible, hermetic tanks in the period of 43 and 89 days were used. Based on the analysis of the obtained results, it was found that the sugar content and the storage time of sugar beet roots can differentiate the production of biomethane and that it influences the methane fermentation process and the quality of the produced biogas.

Sown Area

The article justified the necessity of developing a strategy for the improvement of the sugar beet subcomplex of the region on the base of the determination of the close relationship between beet-growing farms, enterprises engaged in the delivery, processing and sale of manufactured products. According to the authors, the optimization of the raw material zone should include the principle of maximum loading of sugar mills, taking into account the raw materials produced in the region, optimizing transport costs for its delivery. The analysis of the sown area, productivity and gross yield of sugar beets gives us the idea that the region takes the tenth place among the largest producers of sugar beets. The yield and gross yield in 2019 in agricultural enterprises amounted to 459.6 centner / ha, 2231.9 thousand centner (an increase of 13.6% and 9.4% compared to the level of 2018).For P(F)E, the average increase is 40%, which corresponds to 481 centner / ha, 18.3 thousand tons. The average sugar content of beets during acceptance and processing ranges from 17.96 to 18.3%, the sugar yield is 15.63%, the sugar content in molasses is 1.68%, and the average daily productivity is 16.11 thousand ton / day, loss in production is 1.27%. The authors found that the production efficiency of the sugar beet industry is directly connected with the growth of labor productivity, the introduction of modern technologies, cost reduction, and thus, each farm has the opportunity to get additional profit. One of the main problems in the agricultural sector of the economy is the use of available resources to obtain the largest number of products. In our opinion, the production efficiency of sugar mills is closely interconnected with the constructed logistics routes for the transportation of raw materials with the exception of repeated shipments, the proportion of sugar beets in the sown area, and the reliability of suppliers. In our opinion, the efficiency of sugar mills production is in close connection with the built of the logistic routes for transportation of raw materials with the exception of repeated transportation, the specific weight of sugar beet in the structure of the sown area and the reliability ensuring of suppliers. The problem of the effective development of the sugar industry is relevant and priority in solving regional policies, the implementation of which will not only eliminate the emerging imbalances and reduce imports, but also support the domestic producer.

Without doubt, the sugar content is the major quality parameter of sugar beets. The amount of sugar which can be crystallized as white sugar in processing is often predicted using empirical formula. These formulas are usually based on the potassium, sodium and amino-nitrogen content of the beets. The amount of sugar that cannot be crystallized (i.e. the sugar contained in molasses) is related to these internal quality parameters. However, from a process technology perspective other beet quality parameters play an important role too and may have a considerable impact on the efficiency of beet processing and thus production costs. The first part of this paper presents an overview of the technologically considered important external and internal beet quality parameters and how they affect processing.

Growing Period

From 1976 to 1979, sugarbeet cv. Monohil was grown in soil screened in various ways with transparent plastic sheet. Soil and air temp. were measured from sowing until some time after emergence. The temp. 7 cm deep in the rows was closely associated with the width of the strips covering the rows. Perforated plastic was less effective. Increasing soil temp. alone did not increase growth or yield of sugarbeet. When the higher soil temp. was combined with a higher ambient air temp. the development of the crop was advanced by 10-14 days. Improvement in the microclimate positively affected DM production during the growing period and final sugar yield. The higher final sugar yields were more often the result of the higher beet wt. than of a higher sugar content. No evidence was found of the effects of high temp. on leaf damage, the number of bolters or changes in DM distribution in any of the experiments.

The paper highlights the assessment of Verhnyatska selection new combination valuable multigerm of lines – pollinators (МP) efficiency, МS of lines of a different origin and heterozis of hybrids created on their basis. Verhnyatska МP are productive, combination-valuable and plasticity, proved by the hybrid combinations with МS by materials of all skilled-selection stations of a network of Institute of biocrops and sugar beet. At the grade test of 2018 more successful were combinations with МS by lines Ivanivska and Bila Tserkva research selection station. Sugar yield in hybrids made 111.4–108.9 % on the average. A number of experimental hybrids line created with Verhnyatcka selection lines-pollinators in 2019 is listed among the best in sugar yield per hectare. The submitted hybrids STs191125 and STs191134 were characterized by a high parameter of productivity (117.6 and 113.8 % to the standard accordingly). A number of the best hybrids for study in variety ecological testing is selected. Heterosis effect was observed in some cross combinations. The best parameter on productivity (110.0 %) was in the hybrid STs191135 – МS originator of a line of Yaltushkivska RSS. Sugar yield and output were higher than the standard by 8.4 and 14.2 %. The satisfactory parameters of efficiency were observed in the STs190309 hybrid. Its productivity made 104.0 %, sugar yield – 104.1 %, sugar output – 111.8 % to the standard. Significantly high sugar output was in the hybrid STs190815 (119.6 %), where both components of crossing were of Verhnyatska selection. The parameters of productivity, sugar content and yield were 107.7, 100.9 and 109.2 %. Due to a genetic variety of initial materials and successful selection of parental components, their combinational ability and plasticity made it possible to receive new hybrids. Multigerm line-pollinators have high selection value of efficiency parameters. Key words: sugar beet, multigerm, pollinator, fertility, selection, hybrid, productivity.

And Storage

During storage, the invert sugar content of sugar beets increases with increasing storage period and storage temperature, thereby decreasing the processing quality of the beets substantially. Invert sugar results from the enzymatic degradation of sucrose to glucose and fructose. The current methods to determine invert sugar in sugar beets have a low sample frequency and are very expensive and are therefore not implemented in the routine analyses of sugar factories. The content of invert sugar could be calculated based on the glucose content. This requires a constant ratio of glucose to fructose in freshly harvested sugar beets as well as in sugar beets stored under different conditions. The objective of the present study was thus I) to analyse the glucose to fructose ratio of freshly harvested beets and of beets stored under different conditions, and II) to develop a formula to estimate the invert sugar content based on the glucose content of sugar beets. The ratio of glucose to fructose in freshly harvested beets and beets stored under different conditions was quite similar. A close linear relationship between glucose and invert sugar content in freshly harvested and stored beets was found. By using the regression function, the invert sugar content of an independent dataset was calculated based on the glucose content. The estimated invert sugar content was closely correlated with the invert sugar content measured by HPLC. The invert sugar content in freshly harvested and stored sugar beets can thus be calculated with the formula developed in this study. This would considerably improve the quality assessment of sugar beets once the new method to measure the glucose content becomes implemented in the routine analysis in sugar factories.
