Donna, Sugar beets are the major crop here in south west Idaho. Nampa has the dubious distinction of having Idaho's largest source of pollution--a sugar beet processing plant. I do not know how much fiber waste there is, but I will see what I can find out. Something is always fermenting there, but I thought it was liquid waste. I also do not know what is done with all the potato peels. Any root crop is big here--onions and garlic for example, but would they produce sufficient fiber byproduct? Besides tubers, mint, herbs, corn and fruit seem to be the next biggest agricultural producers. I am fairly near an agricultural research center, so I will double check with them and get back to you. We moved to Idaho to be near the forests and their rate of depletion is astounding. Utilizing tree free sources for paper is such a worthwhile goal.
