[QUOTE="Colin, post: 4475000, member: 1419"] Growing beet for AD, finished harvest today, last year averaged about 60t/ha this year about 65, use the rb209 rates for p, k etc, sylvinite for salt, fibrophos for the rest of the base, plough it down and use liquid NS on top, up the N to 150 as no need to worry about impurities. Sow early April at 100,000/ha, keep the weeds out, use two fungicides and foliar feed it B, mg, MN. Any ideas why we are struggling to get yield. The best ground is doing 70, which makes it an ok crop. I used a higher seed rate last year and the beet were very small so cut it back this season. Any suggestions welcome. [/QUOTE]
