Abstract

Abstract : Sugarbeet production regions of North Dakota and Minnesota contribute more than half of the production nationally. Across this region, sugarbeet yield and sugar content vary widely from north to south. The study described in this article used statistical analyses of five years (2013–2017) of county‐wise monthly rainfall data to interpret the spatial variation of sugarbeet yield and quality.
