For this purpose, soil and leaf samples of sugar beet were collected from 30 different field. Soil and leaf samples were analysed for their N, P, K, Na, Ca, Mg, Fe, Zn and Mn contents. Nutritional status of sugar beet was evaluated by comparing the results of analyses with the interpretative values for the nutrients. According to the results, N, P, K, Na, Ca and Mg contents of sugar beet leaf samples were found sufficient or high. On the other hand, Fe, Zn and Mn contents of sugar beet leaf samples were found insufficient, generally. Therefore, it was suggested that microelements fertilizers should be used for sugar beet in this region.Keywords : Seker pancari, beslenme durumu, Tekirdag-Hayrabolu Yöresi
