We are celebrating 50 years of @CrystalSugarCo today, in the same room where 50 years ago our shareholders came together and voted to buy American Crystal, forming the largest farmer-owned beet sugar cooperative in the country. #ACSC50Years

Thank you @RepFinstad for supporting MN sugarbeet farming families and workers and sugar growers and processors across the country! – at Washington, DC
Here in Minnesota, we produce more sugar beets than any other state. Proud of our sugar farming families and processors for all they do to sweeten the world with sugar grown right here in our own backyard. #NationalRealSugarDay

Thanks to @SenTinaSmith for inviting American Crystal Sugar Company shareholder Neil Rockstad to testify at the Senate Agriculture Committee’s Farm Bill producer perspective hearing last week. Neil did a great job representing American Crystal and the entire industry!
Minnesota sugarbeet farmer Neil Rockstad is speaking to the @SenateAgDems @SenateAgGOP subcommittee led by @SenTinaSmith and @SenHydeSmith about the importance of having an essential ingredient like sugar made right here in America. Food security is national security.

We were pleased to share our #MoorheadFactory today with Senator Hoeven (ND) & Senator Boozman (AR). They visited for a tour and learned about our expectations for this campaign's harvest and sugar production.

69% of shoppers believe products claiming to be no or low sugar are lower in calories. This often isn't the case. See the other ways food labels could be improved for transparency here: bit.ly/3DLntNK

“Minnesota produced a third of the nation's total sugar beet harvest in 2021, amounting to a whopping 12.3 million tons of the sweet vegetable, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture.” The @StarTribune giving credit where credit is due. #Sweet bit.ly/3K8SzRE
