Sugar Beets Planting Test Aims in Milford Valley
Moroni Jensen of Utah-Idaho Sugar Company led a May 19 planting day in the South Milford district to test beet crops for proximity to the Spanish Fork factory. About twenty acres will be planted this year by local farmers and the company, with expected annual production of a thousand acres in Milford valley. Beets pay 40 to 100 dollars per acre depending on soil and water, and labor needs are high, so large tracts by individuals are unlikely though modest local acreage could help the enterprise succeed.
