- Intervention effect Ammonium sulphate, compared with urea, significantly exceeded chlorophyll a in the first season only.
- Intervention effect Ammonium sulphate, compared with urea, significantly decreased concentrations of K, Na and alpha-amino-N impurities.
- Intervention effect Ammonium sulphate, compared with urea, significantly decreased loss sugar percentage in both seasons.
- Intervention effect The 120 kg N/fed. rate gave the highest photosynthetic contents, yield components and quality parameters.
- Intervention effect The 120 kg N/fed. rate gave the highest NUE for gross sugar and white sugar yields.
- Intervention effect The same 120 kg N/fed. rate gave the lowest values for all impurity parameters measured.
- Intervention effect The same 120 kg N/fed. rate gave the lowest loss sugar percentage and NUE for roots and loss sugar yields.
- Recommendation The authors recommend ammonium sulphate at 120 kg N/fed. for sugarbeet.
- Association The interaction of nitrogen source and rate was significant for root length and fresh weight per plant in the first season only.
- Association The interaction of nitrogen source and rate was significant for root diameter, chlorophyll b and gross sugar yield in the second season.
- Association The interaction of nitrogen source and rate was significant for all quality parameters and NUE for loss sugar yield in the second season.
- Association The interaction of nitrogen source and rate was significant for roots, top and white sugar yields per feddan in both seasons.
- Association The interaction of nitrogen source and rate was significant for all impurities and NUE for roots, gross sugar and white sugar yields in both seasons.
