Abstract

In the work, an estimation of the costs of sugar beet production in chosen private farms was attempted. The results of 130 surveys carried out in central-eastern Poland were utilized. Financial input per one hectare of sugar beet cultivation was calculated on the basis of current average prices of fertilizers, plant protection agents and fuel in the outlets operating in Siedlce and in the area of the town. In the surveyed farms, a high outlay and both fertilization and plant protection costs significantly and favourably influenced sugar beet root yield. The maximum level of direct surplus (5529.56 PLN) was obtained in the farm applying intensive fertilization and plant protection, in which the root yield was the highest (60 t·ha-1). The production profitability for assumed beet yields was very high (336%–380%). The fertilization level and plant protection determined the index of profitability.
