The 2022 sugarbeet crop went into the pile in good condition and is storing well. SES VanderHave Sales and Marketing Manager Nick Revier would like to see Mother Nature cooperate for a more timely planting season this year. “We’re going into the season somewhat on the dry side so hopefully some of this extra snow will soak in and give us moisture for planting.” Revier said new genetics is on the way to regional beet growers, including tolerance to cercospora root rot, aphanomyces and rhizoctonia root rot. These varieties will be evaluated during this growing season and be ready for commercial release in 2024 and 2025. Listen to the RRFN interview.
