Collection:: Economics Books

32 COSTS OF PRODUCING SUGAR BEETS Table 13 compares the sugar beets produced in the reépre- sentative areas in the various States and in the country as a whole as regards sugar content not extracted. The averages indicate that for the three years the sugar content not extracted was smaller in the representative areas than in the total area planted to beets in the 9 States investigated or in the 17 sugar-beet producing States.

Averages were all obtained by weighting with the total tons of beets produced in each State, respectively. These data were obtained from Tables 12 and 13 and are the differences between the sugar content and the sugar extracted per ton of sugar beets.
