Commercial Sugar Beets
Spring conditions in south-western
Ontario have delayed seeding more
than in the average year, when nor•
malty ten per cent is seeded in April
and fifty per cent in the first half of
May. This season the western end of
the beet growing territory, namely,
Kent, Essex and Lambton counties,
had approximately fifty per cent of
the intended acreage seeded by the
middle of May, but the eastern dis•
trict comprising Middlesex, Huron and
Elgin counties had not seeded more
than twenty per cent,
The contracted acreage for com-
mercial sugar beets in 1940 is slight-
ly over 40,000 acres, and it is antic''
gated that this acreage, which is the
largest ever contracted in Ontario,
will be planted by the end of May.
The 1940 contract is based upon a.
sliding scale, and the price paid will
depend upon the net selling price of
beet sugar sold prior to May 31, 1941.
