Sugar profile for 2009 campaign

How will the percentage sugar vary this campaign?

The profile of the sugar graph for this campaign appears to be following the profile of the campaign 2003. The profile in 2003 rose to a peak and then fell away sharply to the end of the campaign. The profile as of 30th November'09 is now starting to deviate away from the 2003 profile but it is interesting to note that the sugar level for the Bury Factory is continuing to drop whereas the other sites are not dropping off as quickly.

The profile shown in campaigns 2004 to 2008 tended either to have

  • a similar profile to 2003 campaign but with much less of a drop off in sugar percentage or
  • an increasing sugar percentage value to the end of the campaign

I am not sure what will happen but felt it was appropriate to stress what is being seen
