Abstract

Sugarbeets are a major irrigated crop in Idaho and Washington. In
recent years foliar sprays of several nutrient elements, especially the
micronutrients, have been recommended by commercial consultants and
applicators. As a result, many acres not only of beets but other crops
as well have received foliar sprays containing one or more nutrient
elements. Consequently, many questions have arisen concerning the need
for such applications, especially when the crop appears to be growing
well without them, and since definite responses to Cu, Fe, and Mn have
not been documented and responses to Zn and B have been very few.
