Approximately 30% of the world's sugar is produced from sugar beet, while the remaining 70% comes from sugarcane. Sugar beet is primarily grown in temperate climates, particularly in Europe and North America. The global production of sugar from both sources varies annually based on factors such as weather conditions and agricultural practices.
Most sugar comes from sugar cane, a tropical plant grown in southern US states and around the Caribbean but it can also come from beet (much of the sugar in the US is actually beet sugar). Sugar is also present in many fruits and vegies, not to mention sugar maples, honey and sorgham.
Any that contain a "sugar", and the younger and fresher the better. Much of our ordinary sugar comes from sugar beet. Young beetroot will taste sweet. So will young carrots and young peas.
A single sugar beet typically contains about 10-20% sucrose by weight. This means that a medium-sized sugar beet, which weighs around 1.5 to 2.5 pounds (680 to 1134 grams), can yield approximately 0.15 to 0.5 pounds (68 to 227 grams) of sugar. The exact sugar content can vary based on the beet's variety and growing conditions.
One can get 7.6 grams of sugar from a serving of sugar beets, but how much sugar is available in one gram is not listed.
15 to 20 percent with current varieties, and depending on the growing season.
No sugar from sugar cane or beet, but there are sugars from the fermented barley that bourbon is made of.
Feeding unsoaked sugar beet can cause choke in some horses and also colic which can have fatal consequences. Always soak sugar beet for 24 hours unless it is Speedibeet which can be soaked for shorter periods. Never leave sugar beet soaking in hot conditions as it will ferment.
