Résumé : Originally, the sugarbeet is a long daylight plant which flourishes in temperate maritime climates where the temperature range is fairly narrow. Normally, its growth cycle spreads over 2 years, but only the first of these years is relevant to industrial-scale sugar production. It requires deep, rich and neutral or chalky soils. Its natural growth conditions are in the mean temperature range from about 8°C to about 30°-35°. However, as the result of a considerable effort by plant geneticians, the extension of beet growing during the last ten years shows that it is a most versatile plant: in some cases, even, its growing area extends as far as the sugar cane belt (in Spain and Morocco). Nevertheless, each modification in relation to its ecological predilections entails special problems, or reveals hitherto unsuspected qualities.
