Beet Growers Fight Flat Price Push By A B S Co and Holly Sugar
The January 27 1908 note outlines a dispute between beet growers and the A B S Co and Holly Sugar Co over beet prices for 1908. Growers attended a Rocky Ford meeting with 600 to 1000 delegates to reject a proposed 4.60 to 5.00 per ton flat rate and demand 5.00 for beets over 12 percent. Committee members report that managers refused to modify their price proposals, urging growers to unite against the cut and preserve current pricing amid rising costs.
