The harvest of sugar beet goes well
This year’s sugar beet harvest is proceeding well, both the producers and the processors can look forward to a good season, however due to the cessation of sugar production in the EU, they have to compete sharply with the players in the sector – Czerván György, Minister of State of the Ministry of Agriculture said at a professional forum in Dalmand, Tolna County
According to the communication of the Ministry, the Minister of State said at the forum that the crop had been harvested on up to 15 percent of the 16,000 hectares sown area. The yield per hectare of 62.5 tonnes so far has been very good compared to previous years. The five-year average is 5.2 percent higher. The sugar content is average, around 14 percent. (MTI)
