text_A: In the 1850s an attempt was made in Utah by the LDS Church-owned Deseret Manufacturing Company to grow and process sugar beets, that failed for several reasons. First, the beet seeds they imported from France were not able to produce much sugar in the heavily salinized soil of Utah. Second, the cost of importing the beet seed from France consumed any possibility for profit. Finally, a majority of the people running the factory resented the time and effort they had put into learning how to properly use the chemicals to separate the sugar from the beet pulp, since none ever had the chance to really put that knowledge to work.
text_B: If, in a pair of latter-day miracles, the company had been able to find suitable soil and also secure a steady supply of affordable seeds, would the factories and the labor pool already be prepared to start refining sugar, just as soon as the harvest was ready?
YES.
