A genetically modified sugar beet is a sugar beet that has been genetically engineered by the direct modification of its genome using biotechnology. Commercialized GM sugar beets make use of a glyphosate -resistance modification developed by Monsanto and KWS Saat .
Nine million hectares of genetically modified canola was grown with 8 million of those in Canada. Other GM crops grown in 2014 include Alfalfa (862 000 ha), sugar beet (494 000 ha) and papaya (7 475 ha). In Bangladesh a genetically modified eggplant was grown commercially for the first time on 12 ha. [6]
Centro de Tecnologia Canavieira (English:Sugarcane Research Center) or CTC is the largest sugarcane technology center in the world. Its headquarters is located in Piracicaba, São Paulo in one of the most prosperous agribusiness regions in Brazil. CTC was founded in 1969, to attend the technological needs of Copersucar sugarcane
Sugar beets can be stored for a short while after harvest, but must be processed before sucrose deterioration occurs. A recent development has been the introduction of genetically modified seed varieties. In the 2009/10 crop year, genetically modified varieties accounted for about 95 percent of planted area, up from about 60 percent in 2008/09. [5]
BASF Plant Science genetically modifies crops like maize, soy, cotton, canola, sugarcane, sugar beet, and potatoes. These genetically modified crops are sold and distributed through biotechnology companies like Monsanto, [2] KWS Saat, [3] Embrapa, [4] or CTC (Centro de Tecnologia Canavieira). [5]

At some places ratooning sugarcane (for short duration ratoon crops) has also been utilized to provide quality fodder for cattle. Multiple ratooning of sugarcane, with proper management including plant protection, may be utilized for maintaining purity of new improved varieties as well as genetically modified plants, for a longer period of time.
