Sugar beet
Europe is the largest producer of sugar beet globally. Within Europe, sugar beet is cultivated primarily in the temperate climates of the maritime and north-eastern countries France, Germany, Poland and the United Kingdom. Sugar beet is typically sown in March-April, where the plants health and growth are carefully monitored. During the season farmers employ a various number of practices, chaperoning the crop to harvest, such as weed management, irrigation and control of disease and insect pests. Sugar beet is typically harvested in the autumn, the foliage above the soil surface is 'topped' and the remaining roots are mechanically harvested from the soil. The harvested produce is taken to specialist factories where sugar beet is processed into sugar.
