“Encouraging beet price levels.”
For Nicolas Rialland, the general manager of the CGB, the union of French beet growers, the violent crisis of overproduction in Europe, which had plunged sugar prices in 2019, is well over.

The prices of this commodity therefore reached nearly 500 euros per tonne for delivery in September.
