Abstract

The aim is to analyze the indicators of sugar beet and sugar production for the period 1990-2023.  The methods are statistical, on the basis of which primary data on beet and sugar production, import and export volumes of these products, sugar production and consumption per capita are obtained. Results – the authors note that the development of the sugar beet subcomplex is accompanied by a steady decrease in the volume of sugar beet and sugar produced. This is facilitated by a decrease in acreage, yield and production of sugar beet. The decrease in these indicators is due to the high cost of production and low profitability of the crop produced, outdated technical base, the use of low-quality seeds, problems with irrigation, low capacity utilization of sugar factories, etc. The decrease in the volume of domestic sugar produced has an impact on sugar production and consumption per capita. Sugar consumption is provided by imported sugar and sugar obtained from the processing of raw sugar.  The authors have considered in detail the state measures to increase sugar production from domestic raw materials, set out in the Comprehensive Plan for the development of the sugar industry for 2023-2026. Conclusions: the implementation of the tasks set in a comprehensive plan will increase the supply of sugar through the processing of domestic raw materials, reduce the share of imported white sugar.
