Abstract: The possible use of beer factory sludge (BFS) for a purpose was investigated with sugar beet (Beta vulgaris saccharifera L.). BFS was mixed with soil at a rate 0, 10, 20, 40, 80 and 160 t/hm2. BFS increased leaf and root yield. However, the effect of BFS on leaf growth was more pronounced than on root growth. The highest sugar content, refined sugar content and refined sugar yield were obtained with the application rate of 10 t/hm2 BFS. 10t/hm2 of BFS was the most suitable on the basis of root quality parameters and root yield. However BFS should be applied to the soil six or seven months in advance due to the high level of nitrogen released through mineralization.
