Infos

Sugar beet, alongside sugar cane, is the main source of sugar
across the world. Grown widely in Europe, North and South America,
Asia and parts of North Africa, the crop is at the core of a
multi-billion dollar global industry.

A. Philip Draycott has gathered 32 international experts to
create this defining text, providing a comprehensive review of the
latest research in a clear and accessible form, providing the
reader with:

* Definitive account of this major world crop

* * Coverage of all aspects of successful sugar beet growing

* * Over 2,500 references from international literature

* * Colour images to assist in the identification of sugar beet
pests, diseases and nutrient deficiencies

All those involved with the crop, including growers and
processors, sugar beet and sugar organisations and society members
will find this book to be an invaluable resource. Agricultural and
plant scientists, food scientists and technologists and all
libraries in research institutions where these subjects are studied
and taught will find it a valuable addition to their shelves.
