Sugar Beet
(Beta vulgaris)
(Chenopodiacea)
It is a crop of great economic importance. It is cultivated for the purpose of sugar production, and the cultivated area of sugar beet increases annually.
The stages of plant growth in general can be divided into four stages: the stage of formation of true leaves (30 days after planting ), the stage of the formation of the vegetative system, the stage of roots formation and the stage of pre-harvest (3-4 weeks before harvest). The duration of each stage may vary depending on the variety and climatic conditions and availability of Nutrients.
Foliar fertilization is the fastest and most effective way to supplement and enrich plant nutrition and correct nutritional deficiencies when needed. This contributes significantly to higher and better quality production. Magico group has a wide range of foliar fertilizers and special products for foliar application in sugar beet
