The significant influence on sugar content for the sugar beets is related to the precipitation and
temperature during periods with temperatures between 15 and 20 °C. It should be noted that
during periods of sugar content increase, there is a general decrease in the yield of sugar beet in the
region, in short, high sugar content, low yield. These results are similar to those found elsewhere.
However, this study shows that not only are sugar beet crop yields related to teleconnections
and other natural cycles, there is also a correlation between the dynamics of changes in the sugar
contents of beet in the region. This was demonstrated using a time series analysis and a statistical
analysis. These cycles are the Bruckner solar cycles and interannual (e.g., ENSO) or interdecadal
atmospheric teleconnections (e.g., NAO), that during warm and dry periods, the:
increases, and in cold and wet is reduced.
