Title
Responses of Sugar Beet Beta vulgaris to Foliar Sprays of Copper
Marc F Allison; Peter J Last; Kathy M R Bean Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture 1996. doi:10.1002/(sici)1097-0010(199610)72:2<219::aid-jsfa642>3.3.co;2-5
Other claims from this paper (6)
- Intervention effect Copper sprays did not affect sugar beet yields on peat soils.
- Association Soil EDTA extractable copper showed no clear relationship with yield response to added copper.
- Intervention effect Copper formulation had little effect on sugar beet yield.
- Intervention effect Wetter and adjuvant treatments had little difference in sugar beet yield.
- Intervention effect Copper sprays did not affect beet processing quality, including where yield responses were large.
- Observation An analysis estimated that copper deficiency could affect 15% of the UK sugar beet crop.
