Sugar beet industry,19th century
Sugar beet industry,19th century. Illustration of sugar beet plants arriving at a factory for processing. Sugar beet is a crop cultivated for its high sugar content. The roots of the plant are chopped and boiled in water to extract a sugary juice that is then processed further to produce sugar. Although an ancient crop,it was not until selective breeding in the 18th century that the sugar content increased enough to justify industrial processing. The world's first sugar beet factory opened in 1801. Artwork from volume 5 (1874) of a republication of 'Les Grandes Usines',a multi-volume work on French industry by journalist and author Julien Turgan (1824-1887)
