| Most beet ground is either moldboard or chisel plowed
in the fall. Better stands are often achieved if the soil is worked
early and seeds are planted into a stale seed bed. |

| Land is tilled in the spring to level the ground and
incorporate fertilizer, usually the day before or the day of planting. |
