Beet Price Set At 5.50 Per Ton By Black Hills Plant
D B Pratt announces the year's beet price at 5.50 dollars per ton on a sliding scale tied to sugar market trends. The minimum is 5.50 with potential increases if sugar rises. The plan uses four periods influenced by Chadbourne price fixing and other nations’ limits. Over half a million dollars will be paid for beets and the same amount to 200 plant workers during a 70 day October to December run. Labor is mostly signed up with priority to married men and locals. The shorter run length is due to irrigation choices rather than crop failure. Sugar content is expected to be high.

It is mostly harmless to cats, dogs, poultry, and children unless eaten in large quantities, and scientists warn about its use in home rodent control.
