Description

Sugar beet is of major economic importance internationally and, as a farm crop, is one of the most demanding for farmers to grow successfully. The Sugar Beet Crop looks at sugar beet from all important angles, including the crop's history, biology, breeding, agronomy, nutrition, pests, diseases and weeds, storage, quality, economics and by-products. Where possible, particular aspects of the scientific basis of potential for the crop's improvement are highlighted. The editors of the book, themselves experts with wide experience of the crop, have drawn together an extremely impressive group of contributors, each a leading expert on the subject of the chapters they have written. This book will be a definitive work on the sugar beet and should appear on the shelves of all those involved with the crop, including plant scientists and technologists, agricultural research workers, food scientists and technologists and all those working in the sugar beet industry. It should also be available as a reference book for students in all establishments where agricultural and plant sciences, and food science and technology are studied and taught.
