Abstract
Field experiments were conducted during two successive growing seasons in a factorial design at the National Research Center farm, Nubaria area, Behura Governorate. Experiments investigated the effect of water deficit 100, 75; 50% of ETc (IR1, IR2; IR3), compost tea (30,40, 60 and 80 L/fed: CT1, CT2, CT3 and CT4) on growth yield and quality of sugar beet plants grown under conditions of drip and sprinkler irrigation systems. Data also showed that application of compost tea enhancing both yield of root and sugar. Application of compost tea increased root yield by 10.35, 12.77 and 17.19 % and sugar yield by 27.58, 34.29 and 22.40%, respectively compared to that without fertilizer addition. The drip irrigation system was significantly more efficient than sprinkler irrigation system.
