SUGAR AND SUGAR BEET PRODUCTION IN TURKEY AND POLAND IN THE YEARS 1995-2014

Abstract

The work summarizes changes, which involved the sugar and sugar beet production in Turkey and in Poland, in the years 1995-2014. Sugar beet area in Turkey has decreased by 7% and in Poland by 48%. Harvest has increased by 51% in Turkey and has remained unchanged in Poland. Sugar beet yield has increased: in Turkey by 63% and in Poland by 97%. 71% farmers have stopped cropping sugar beet, while in Poland this share has been 87%. Mean plantation size has increased in Turkey by over a factor of 2 (compared to 1997), while in Poland it has been by a factor of almost 4. Sugar production in Turkey has dropped by 13% (compared to 1997) and in Poland it has grown by 29%. Three new sugar plants started operation in Turkey in the years 1995-2014. In Poland 58 facilities shut down. Turkey’s securing position of major sugar producer is to be expected, under the conditions of increased pace of production concentration and implementing new production technologies. Withdrawal of sugar production quotas in the EU resulted in increased sugar beet spring sowing in several member states, including Poland. Further developments in 2018 and in the following years shall depend on the profitability of sugar beet crops and of sugar production. Significant influence is also to be expected from the isoglucose competition, production of which is to enjoy quotas withdrawal, as well.<br/><br/>
