Abstract
An experiment was carried out at the Horticulture Farm, Bangladesh Agricultural University, Mymensingh, from November 2014 to April 2015, to study the effect of planting dates on the growth and yield of five varieties of sugarbeet (Beta vulgaris L.). The experiment consisted of two planting dates such as 16 November and 30 November and five varieties, viz., Serenada, Aranka, Belleza, Danicia, and Natura. The experiment was laid out in a Randomized Complete Block Design with three replications. Observations were made on yield and different plant characters, e.g., plant height, number of leaves/plants, root length, fresh weight of root/plant, root yield/plot, root yield/ha, fresh weight of leaves/plant, leaf yield/plot, leaf yield/ha, dry weight of root/plant, dry weight of leaves/plant, root diameter and total soluble solids (TSS). The results showed that planting dates significantly affected yield and all the plant characters of sugarbeet under study. The higher root yield (27.69, 32.10 and 32.71 t ha-1) and the higher leaf yield (13.61, 25.728 and 26.93 t ha-1) were recorded from 16 November planting at 90, 120 and 150 DAP, respectively. The root yield and leaf yield decreased gradually after planting on 16 November. The effect of varieties significantly influenced the growth and yield of sugarbeet. The higher root yield (25.14, 39.68 and 41.96 t ha-1) and leaf yield (17.56, 30.12 and 31.64 t ha-1) were found in the variety Serenada at 90, 120 and 150 DAP, respectively. The lower root yield (17.20, 21.24 and 24.81 t ha-1) and leaf yield (4.74, 17.83 and 18.73 t ha-1) were obtained from the variety Danicia at 90, 120, and 150 DAP, respectively. The combined effect of planting dates and variety significantly affected growth and yield. Serenada variety gave the maximum root yield (31.63, 41.43 and 45.14 t ha-1) and leaf yield (21.6, 30.20, and 31.94 t ha-1) with 16 November planting at 90, 120, 150 DAP, respectively. The minimum root yield (10.24, 20.36 and 24.08 t ha-1) and leaf yield (2.4, 17.41 and 18.07 t ha-1) with 30 November planting at 90, 120 and 150 DAP, respectively were obtained from the variety Danicia. The results indicated that all the varieties gave a higher yield on 16 November planting than the planting on 30 November and the Serenada variety gave the highest yield among the varieties.
