Abstract
Abstract Successful storage of sugar beets is dependent upon low storage temperatures. In parts of the United States where night temperatures are near the freezing point during the storage period, artificial ventilation during the night has been suggested as a means of removing heat from the beets. While this method has possibilities there has been a lack of knowledge and understanding regarding the large quantity of air required, and consequently the large blowers and ducts necessary. While the size of the structures would not be impractical, it is necessary to understand the magnitude of the problem before an attempt is made to design a commercial-size storage.
