Sugar Beet
About
The Sugar Beet is a commercially grown crop, raised for sugar production. Sugar beets account for 30%% of the world's sugar production. The advent of sugar beet production is relatively new, only about a century old. Because the sugar beet can be grown in a variety of climates and can withstand fully mechanized harvesting, it is widely grown in the United States for sugar production.
