Agribusinesses in the Southern Federal District are completing the sugar beet harvest, despite unfavorable weather conditions.

In the Southern Federal District, agribusiness companies of the Prodimeks Group are nearing the completion of sugar beet harvesting. Some farms have already finished this work. The best results in terms of yield were demonstrated by the agrofirms "Breeding Farm "Urupsky" and "Veles" in the Krasnodar region. However, adverse weather conditions in spring and summer led to a decrease in sugar beet collection.

Several plants in the region, including "Stavropolsakhar," have already completed the processing of the roots. The "Uspensky Sugar Plant" processed about 1 million tons of sugar beets and produced more than 130 thousand tons of sugar. The season is planned to be completed by December.

In the Voronezh region, the sugar beet harvest is completed, and now the crop is being exported from the fields.

In the Kursk region, the sugar beet harvest was completed ahead of schedule due to low precipitation levels in October, but the summer drought reduced yields in many branches compared to the planned level.
