A three-year trial was carried out to determine the effects of plant number (stand density) and harvesting date on seed vigor, seed viability, and seed fill in sugar beet. Neither of the two factors had any significant effect on the qualitative characteristics of sugar beet seeds, although the seed did have a somewhat higher viability when sown at a spacing of 50 x 12 cm. At the later harvesting dates, the proportions of filled and viable seeds was such as to provide high quality seeds after further processing.
