The output amounted to 1,274,000 tonnes in the recently concluded campaign, up from the 1,242,000 reported in 2004, thereby meeting the previously announced expectations.
The sugar output was helped by the exceptionally warm and sunny autumn in most regions, leading to strong beet growth late in the season and a high sugar content, the Danish company said.
Danisco added that all its sugar factories had a technically successful production with volume records in several days and weeks.
Danisco executive vice president Mogens Granborg said: “We are very satisfied with this year’s sugar output. Once again we’ve proved that our determined effort to bring factory efficiency to European top level has been a success.
