This is an old sugar beet processing plant that will start processing beets in August. The season will then operate two shifts for two months. The plant employed 600 in May 1998 and this will increase to 800-1,000 in the peak period. In the Soviet period the plant produced twice as much sugar as presently. The plant used to sell all its output to Russia, but now sells only to the other former republics of the USSR. As with other Ukrainian sugar beet plants, sales to Russia were drastically curtailed when Russia levied high import duties. |
