Water stress is considered as one of the major factors responsible for reducing sugar beet crop productivity. A field experiment was carried out at El-Emam Malek, El-Bostan district, El Behira governorate, Egypt, at 2022-2023, to study the effects of sprayed soil conditioner (glue: 0, 2, 4; 6 %/spraying solution) on some hydrophysical soil characteristics and yield, yield parameters, water use efficiency of sugar beet and some soil properties under different water regimes, WR (100, 85 and 70% from ETo). Results showed the reduction in the irrigation quantities led to increase in sugar beet leaf content from N, P, K and Ca content. So, the highest values were recorded at WR 70%+6% glue in spraying solution (N, 3.50 %), P (1.70%) and 100 WR (K, 3.25% and Ca (1.84%) and water regime treatment 85% scored the highest values for chlorophyll A, B and carotenoids, while the lowest ones were recorded at 70 % WR.
