CROP: Sugar beet, “Attak” variety

PRODUCT: Mg12 (foliar application)

YEAR:  2023

COUNTRY: Kazakhstan

TESTER: Vympel LLC

‍

APPLICATION:

1. Control. NPK background.
2. Background NPK + Mg12. Foliar application: 1st - in the phase of 4-6 true leaves, 2nd - in the phase of closing leaves in rows, Mg12 consumption - 1.5 kg/ha, working solution consumption - 300 l/ha.
3. Background NPK + Mg12. Foliar application: 1st - in the phase of 4-6 true leaves, 2nd - in the phase of closing leaves in rows, Mg12 consumption - 2.0 kg/ha, working solution consumption - 300 l/ha.
4. Background NPK + Mg12. Foliar application: 1st - in the phase of 4-6 true leaves, 2nd - in the phase of closing leaves in rows, Mg12 consumption - 3.0 kg/ha, working solution consumption - 300 l/ha.

Trial plots area – 100 m², observed plots area – 25 m². Trial repetitiveness — four times.

‍

RESULT:

1. Yield increase compared to control with NPK background: 24.92-43.61%.
2. The yield increase resulted from improvements in yield structure.
3. Root mass increased by 39.2-41.8%, and root diameter by 1.6-3.3 cm.
4. Quality indicators improved: dry matter content increased by 1.4-3.5%, and total sugar content increased by 2.7-5.4%.
5. Sugar collection per hectare nearly doubled.
6. The maximum result was achieved with a double application at a 3.0 kg/ha dose.
7. All yield increases exceeded the experimental error and were statistically significant.
