Britain Produces Sufficient Sugar No auger Imported by Britain Due to Expansion of Sugar • Beet' Industry • Britain is producing all her do- ' • mestio requirements of sugar under. the • present scale 'of rationing, a• Minister of Agriculture official said last week.' It comes entirely from the sugaf beet industry -which :his --b greatly eirpanded over• a number of years.' Lincolnshire has the largest acreage o4 any county growifg ' b'eets,and it also"has a number of anger beet factories. • A Ministry of Foods _spokesman said he understood the situation is so satisfactory that no sugar is being imported. Britain's present annual sugar consumption is a wartime secret. The weekly ration .amounts to 11s 750,000hundredweight annually. This does :not include the amount allotted to hotels and boarding betties and far industrial purposes. The average weekly pre-war con- sumption was 2.1-4 pounds per head. Imports in 1938 totalled 47,447,661 hundredweight while Britain's 18 sugar beet factories produced some 10,000,000 hundredweight that year.
