Sugarbeet harvest for the American Crystal Sugar Company is starting to wrap up. “We’ve had great progress. With the cool nights, farmers are doing a good job keeping toppers close so we can keep going and putting sugarbeets in the pile,” says Joe Hastings, general agronomist, American Crystal Sugar Company. “We anticipate wrapping up with harvest before November 1.” Sugarbeet growers are harvesting a respectable crop. “We think this crop will come in around 29 tons. It’s a very nice surprise. We got good rains in September and a good crop.”
