Lovell-area sugar beet harvest 2nd best on record

This year's sugar beet crop in the Lovell area in north-central Wyoming was the second-best on record. Harvests averaged just over 28.8 tons per acre. The 2011 crop still holds the record at just under 28.9 tons per acre. Growers in the district delivered just under half a million tons of beets. That will be processed into some 1.2 million bags of sugar weighing 100 pounds each.
