Sugar Beet Notes Show Mixed Harvest and New Prospects
The Chino beet harvest is light with some second growth and slow ripening. Wat sonville prospects look good as spring weather improves. Menomonee Falls factory will not operate this season despite stored beets, following last May’s failure and recent reorganization efforts. Experiments in western Colorado show four years of testing, with earlier planting and irrigation boosting yield. Grand Junction to Lehi shipments averaged 15.6 sugar of 85.3 purity in 1903, then higher sugar but 82.1 purity next year. Officials note quality improvements and affordable inputs but high freight costs keep sugar prices elevated. Orange Jodd Farmer.
