Other claims from this paper (7)
- Intervention effect Foliar nutrition with silicon increased the net production value of sugar beet by 5.5-19.0% over the research period.
- Observation The variation in the achieved financial results of sugar beet was large in 2015, under particularly unfavorable conditions.
- Observation The difference in financial results between years was smaller in the more favorable year, 2016.
- Intervention effect The double and triple application of Actisil fertilizer gave the largest increase in gross and net production value of sugar beet.
- Intervention effect The triple application of the Optysil growth stimulator gave the largest increase in gross and net production value of sugar beet.
- Intervention effect A single Optysil growth stimulator application gave the largest profitability indicator, 11.26, for sugar beet.
- Observation The total costs of silicon foliar application of sugar beet varied from 50 to 402 PLN/ha, depending on the number of treatments and the product applied.
