Abstract

The investigation was carried out on tropical sugarbeet to evaluate integrated nutrient management with suitable hybrids. The experiment was conducted in strip plot design. The Factor I consist of four integrated nitrogen management and the factor II consist of three tropical sugarbeet hybrids (Cauvery, Indus and Shubhra). Higher crop biometrics of tropical sugarbeet was recorded in application of 100 per cent N through Urea along with FYM and biofertilizer treatment. The yield characters and yield (71 and 89 t ha−1 during 2005 and 2006 respectively) of tropical sugarbeet and brix (18 %) were higher in application of 100 per cent N through Urea along with biofertilizer and FYM during both the experiments conducted during 2005–06 and 2006–07. With respect to tropical sugarbeet hybrids, Cauvery performed better in terms of yield (76 and 94 t ha−1 during 2005 and 2006 respectively) and Shubhra recorded higher brix (20 %). Application of 100 per cent N through Urea along with FYM and biofertilizer with Cauvery hybrid performed better for tropical sugarbeet emergence, establishment, yield and quality.
