Abstract: Field studies were conducted on a farm in northwest Wyoming to compare variable-rate fertilization (VRF) with uniformrate fertilization (URF) of sugar beets. Results from this study failed to show an economic advantage from VRF compared to URF, implying producers should be very cautious to adopt VRF technology, unless field fertility needs are highly variable.
