Abstract

Sugarbeet irrigation has been studied extensively in the western
United States. The present "state of the art" has been reviewed
by Loomis and Haddock (2) 8. Most field experiments
have been run at three or more levels of soil moisture—wet,
medium and dry. Differences in root and sugar yields under
these moisture regimes have not been strikingly different so long
as the "dry" treatment did not cause prolonged wilting, and so
long as the "wet" treatment did not cause leaching of nutrients.
