The 2007 sugar beet harvest in the Panhandle and southeast Nebraska is continuing to move ahead quickly.
Western Sugar Cooperative area ag manager Jerry Darnell says it will be nearing the wrap up stages by early next week.
As of Wednesday morning, 76% of the crop was in with yields averaging near the 24-ton mark. Darnell says sugar percentages haven't changed much and continue to average in the 16.3% range for Valley beets and 17% for the Box Butte sugar beet crop.
Darnell says field conditions remain pretty good in most areas, but wet soil conditions are posing problems on some isolated fields.
