Sugarbeet Harvest Update 

Sugarbeet Pre-Harvest continues to progress across the Red River Valley, but recent temperatures could cause some changes in the pre harvest. Joe Hastings of American Crystal Sugar tells us more. 

As for the beet quality, Hastings says this year’s beet crop is healthy, and sugar content is strong. 

Safety is always a top priority for every sugarbeet harvest, and Harrison Weber of the Red River Valley Sugarbeet Growers Association reminds all beet truck drivers to be extra cautious when out on our roads.

Area producers are still in need of labor for the upcoming sugarbeet harvest. People interested in a temporary job working harvest should go to rrvsga.com/sugarbeet-harvest-jobs.
