Due to the fact that sugar beets are biannual, they take two years to mature. The name comes from the plants’ first-year production of a sizable white root with a high sugar content. The beets grow blooms and eventually create seed by using the sugar that has been stored in the beet root.
Specifically in Oregon and Washington, sugar beet seeds are produced. Cross-pollination is a problem in the West of the United States, where table beets, sugar beets, and swiss chard are all produced as seeds. The sexual compatibility of the three crops is due to their shared species.
Sugar beets are among the most typical plants used in the manufacturing of white sugar, along with sugarcane. Other refined sugars like molasses and brown sugar are also made from sugar beets.
A sugar beet is a plant that is produced commercially for the production of sugar and whose roots have a high concentration of sucrose. It is referred to as the Altissima cultivar group of the common beet in plant breeding Beta vulgaris.
The bulk of sugar beets are creamy white and typically much, much larger than their more well-known siblings. They have a pointed end and resemble large potatoes, as if a red beet had tripled in size and turned white.
The Global sugar beet seed market accounted for $XX Billion in 2022 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2023 to 2030.
With a large investment, KWS is securing the future of sugarbeet seed production. It gives KWS the opportunity to satisfy market demands and customer needs, which have gotten more and more specialised over the past few years, among other benefits.
Additionally, by making this investment, KWS is demonstrating its unequivocal support for the prosperous future of sugarbeet, a crop that has long been a key component of the KWS portfolio.
In order to increase sugar beet production, KWS is spending more than 40 million euros. Production volume at the primary site at Einbeck has significantly grown. Increasingly specific consumer needs can be met by seed production.Faster and more sustainable production is made possible by modern technology.
