Field trials were carried out on a number commercial plots in the Vojvodina Province (Serbia) during 2007 and 2008, in order to determine how the biofertilizer NS-Betafixin affects root yields, white sugar yields, and microbial abundance in the sugar beet rhizosphere. The use of NS-Betafixin resulted in a significant increase of yield compared with the control (untreated soil). The total number of microorganisms and azotobacter abundance increased as well, while the number of fungi and actinomycetes decreased. Overall, the application of NS-Betafixin can be regarded as a good tool for improving sugar beet yields both quantitatively and qualitatively. It may also reduce fertilizer application and production costs and is environmentally friendly.
