Other claims from this paper (7)
- Intervention effect Fresh root and sugar yields were maximized at high N rates when data were combined.
- Intervention effect Increased N rates had negative effects on root and sugar yield in three trials.
- Intervention effect Sucrose content was strongly and linearly reduced by increased N rates when data were combined.
- Association Non-sugar impurities were positively related to increased N rates when data were combined.
- Association Sodium and α-amino N were most affected by N fertilization, with positive relationships in six and eight of 12 locations.
- Association Increased N supply resulted in higher soil NO3-N concentrations at harvest.
- Association Soil NO3-N at harvest was related to amino N contents in sugar beet roots.
