Sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.) is a globally significant crop, valued for its economic importance in sugar production. Saline‐sodic soil environments negatively impact sugar beet productivity. This study investigates the effects of using compost, glauconite enriched‐K and their combinations in mitigating the saline‐sodic soil environment, sugar beet productivity and extracted sugar quality. A two‐season field experiment in split‐plot design with the main plots is three doses of compost: control (C0), recommended (100%) dose (C1) and 150% recommended dose (C2). Each group divided into four subplots of glauconite treatments arranged according to the recommended dose of potassium (K) as follows: G0 (no glauconite), G1 (50% K), G2 (100% K, 480 Kg glauconite Fed−1) and G3 (150% K). The results showed that compost and glauconite mitigated adverse soil effects caused by salinity and sodicity. The C2G3 treatment reduced electrical conductivity (EC) and exchangeable sodium percentage (ESP), improved organic matter and enhanced soil bulk density, porosity and penetration resistance. This combination also increased soil nutrients (N, K, Fe, Mn, Zn and Cu). Regarding the sugar beet yield, C2G3 improved root yield, top yield, sugar yield and extracted sugar. The application of glauconite increased root diameter by 20% and root length by 23%, enhanced sugar quality with minimal sugar losses to molasses (2.43%), and reduced impurities of K, α‐amino N and Na. Principal component analysis showed positive correlations between root yield and soil potassium, organic matter, cation exchange capacity and soil porosity, with negative correlations to bulk density, EC, pH and ESP. Two‐way analysis of main (ANOM) illustrated significant effects of compost and glauconite on soil–plant interactions. Multivariate analysis indicated that higher glauconite doses significantly enhanced root yield. The Gag run charts confirmed that compost (100%) and G3 levels explored more homogeneity reducing the ESP%, increasing sugar beet root yield, sugar yield and quality.

提高土壤弹性和甜菜（Beta vulgaris L.）产量：堆肥和海绿石整合的中期影响


甜菜（甜菜L.) 是一种全球重要的作物，因其在食糖生产中的经济重要性而受到重视。盐碱土环境对甜菜生产力产生负面影响。本研究调查了使用堆肥、海绿石富钾及其组合在缓解盐碱土环境、甜菜生产力和提取糖质量方面的效果。采用裂区设计的两季田间试验，主要地块采用三种剂量的堆肥：对照（C0）、推荐（100%）剂量（C1）和150%推荐剂量（C2）。每组分为四个根据推荐钾剂量 (K) 排列的海绿石处理子区，如下：G0（无海绿石）、G1（50% K）、G2（100% K、480 Kg 海绿石饲喂） −1 ) 和 G3 (150% K)。结果表明，堆肥和海绿石减轻了盐度和碱度对土壤的不利影响。 C2G3处理降低了电导率（EC）和交换性钠百分比（ESP），改善了有机质并增强了土壤容重、孔隙度和渗透阻力。这种组合还增加了土壤养分（氮、钾、铁、锰、锌和铜）。在甜菜产量方面，C2G3提高了根产量、顶部产量、糖产量和提取糖。使用海绿石使根直径增加了 20%，根长度增加了 23%，提高了糖质量，糖蜜中的糖损失最少（2.43%），并减少了钾、α-氨基氮和钠的杂质。主成分分析表明，根系产量与土壤钾、有机质、阳离子交换量和土壤孔隙度呈正相关，与容重、EC、pH和ESP呈负相关。 主要双向分析（ANOM）表明堆肥和海绿石对土壤-植物相互作用的显着影响。多变量分析表明，较高的海绿石剂量可显着提高根产量。 Gag 运行图证实，堆肥 (100%) 和 G3 水平探索了更多同质性，降低了 ESP%，提高了甜菜根产量、糖产量和质量。
