Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book is the final report of a five-year study by the U.S government on the influence of geographical location and climate on sugar beet composition, conducted from 1900 to 1904. Sugar content of the beet was significantly higher by nearly 3% in 1904, attributed to moderate temperatures and rainfall during the growing season facilitating an ideal ripening process. The effect of rainfall on beet quality is discussed throughout, with ideal growing locations, such as Washington, D.C receiving ample rainfall at the appropriate stages of growth to yield quality sugar beets. The author emphasizes the need for further research on the effects of soil and climate factors, and the importance of understanding these factors for successful sugar beet cultivation.
