Sugar Beet Disease Controls Show Progress, Supply Outlook Improves
European sugar beet yields improved in 2025 as integrated pest management reduced reed glass-winged cicada populations threatening German sugar production. Südzucker reports higher beet yields and sugar content versus 2024, though emergency insecticide approvals remain necessary for 2026. Industrial bakers face reduced supply risk as coordinated control strategies show measurable progress against SBR and Stolbur bacterial diseases.
Südzucker is considered to be one of the world leaders in sugar, speciality products, ethanol and fruit. Südzucker was formed in Germany in 1926 and produces over 5 million tonnes of sugar every year. It employs 18,500 people and has €7 billion in annual revenues.
