Abstract
The world experience shows that in the 21st century, the sustainable development of the Russian beet production and sugar industry is impossible without scientific achievements. It requires low-cost resource-saving technologies that can save resources and increase the efficiency of sugar beet production. It was found that in order to increase the profitability of the sugar beet production industry, the following technologies should be used: intensive (application of herbicides); resource-saving (strip post-emergence application of herbicides); environmental protection (production of beets without herbicides, but with the use of manual labor). The intensification of sugar beet processing entails the use of new technologies that can reduce the volume of waste. The waste-free production makes it possible to strengthen the role of secondary resources as raw materials in the manufacture of various products. Secondary raw materials are used as raw materials. Structural and investment policies pursued by the government do not stimulate their processing. Therefore, beet-sugar agro-associations themselves should solve these issues. Their efforts should be aimed at ensuring the comprehensive processing of sugar beets to produce high-quality valuable food and feed products from production waste.
Highlights
Sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.), commonly considered as a temperate region crop, is grown in subtropical countries even during the winter season
In Tambov, the VIITI Institute developed a new technology for the cultivation of sugar beets using energy-intensive tractors VT-100 and LTZ155, which were aggregated with an 18-row machine produced by OKB “Soyuz”
To increase the efficiency of the technologies, they must be adapted to each agricultural enterprise
Summary
Sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.), commonly considered as a temperate region crop, is grown in subtropical countries even during the winter season. - the resource-saving technology, which involves sowing at the final density of plantings and strip postemergence application of herbicides;. - the environmental protection technology, which involves the production of beets without herbicides, but the use of manual labor [4]. The integrated approaches to technological processes involved the rational use of material resources, new machines and highly productive varieties and hybrids (Pyrkin, 1998). These issues have been widely discussed in the scientific literature [5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12].
