if it is the lower older leaves that are affected then there is no problem as this is normal. However if it is the young leaves that are affected you may have a disease of beet called Phoma. Your beet may be sown too thickly or in a poorly ventilated area. generally the crop grows out of it after thinning out to 4-6 inches. beet does not transplant well.
