e1“In 11-year field experiments, the effect that one and three foliar applications of fungicides containing various active ingredients (triazoles, benzimidazoles, strobilurines) had on sugar beet root yields was assessed”
e2“in eight of the 11 years, foliar application of fungicides increased yields compared to unprotected plants”

Other claims from this paper (4)
- Intervention effect Three foliar fungicide treatments during the growing season were more effective than a single application for sugar beet root yield.
- Association The negative correlation of sugar beet root yield with June rainfall was weaker in fungicide-protected plants than in unprotected plants.
- Association The positive correlation of fungicide-protected sugar beet yield with June air temperature was stronger than in unprotected plants.
- Recommendation Long-term field experiments are needed and integrated production principles for sugar beet should be improved, especially for rational pesticide use.
