Beet originated along the Mediterranean coast and were introduced to China from Arab countries about 1500 years ago. The main producers are the Netherlands, Ukraine, Russia, the United States, France, Poland, Germany, Turkey, Italy, Romania and the United Kingdom. The cultivation of sugar beets for feed and leaves, like most crops, began in prehistoric times. Beets are widely grown in temperate and cold temperate regions and in warm regions in the cool season. Under suitable climate, the growing period of vegetable beets is 8~10 weeks, and some forage beets are 30 weeks.

In addition to sucrose production, sugar beet and its by-products have a wide development and utilization prospect.
