There have been some growing challenges for the sugarbeet crop, which has impacted sugar content. Betaseed sales manager Lynn Dusek says it should still be a fairly average beet crop. “We took off some strip trials this past week and sugars are coming back from the quality lab at upper 16s or low 17s; let’s hope for some drier weather to maybe boost the sugar content up a bit.” Yields in the upper 20 to low 30 ton range are being seen.
