The Sugar Beet seed industry in the United States seeks large-scale operations with extensive irrigation regions in Colorado Montana Utah Idaho and the Rocky Mountain States. Biennial beets store seed in winter pits and seed is harvested in the second year with minimum root weight criteria of about eight to sixteen ounces. The USDA Farmers' Bulletin 1152 promotes growing sugar beet seed on large acreage to meet rising yearly demand, with eventual domestic seed production anticipated.

Stecklings in Beet Seed Production and Harvest
Steckling production for commercial beet seed begins with early sowing of high quality seed and careful germination tests. Harvest starts before freezing weather, around September 20 in northern Colorado, finishing by October 10, with tops mowed and beets plowed. If leaves are thick, they can be siloed for feed and stored to prevent drying out.
