At present, raffinose is produced commercially by purification from sugar beet at the factory of Nippon Beet Sugar Mfg. Co., Ltd., but its production is affected by the availability of sugar beet (Sayama et al. 1992).
As the title says, really. Sucrose is produced (along with other carbohydrates) in leaves following photosynthesis. Sucrose functions in most plant species as a transport molecule that can be transported from photosynthetic tissues (sources) to non-photosynthetic tissues (sinks). Sucrose therefore serves as a source of fixed carbon that can be distributed systemically throughout the plant. Sucrose moves from sources (e.g. leaf) to a sinks (e.g. root) via phloem, which is a plant vascular system that transports photosynthates around the plant. Once the sucrose has reached the sink, it can either be hydrolysed directly (into glucose + fructose) for energy or alternatively used to synthesise polymers such as starch and cellulose.
