The analysis of cost and return from sorghum production were divided into two parts: the first part attempted to compare cost and return from the production of white and red sorghum varieties. Cost of production of white sorghum was 406.50 baht per rai with the gross return of 546.22 baht, and a net profit of 139.22 baht per rai. For red sorghum, on the other hand, cost of production was 621.07 baht per rai with the gross return of 721.44 baht with a slightly low net profit of 100.37 baht per rai. The main difference in net profit was mainly due to lower seed cost and higher grain price of white sorghum. The second part dealt with the comparison of cost and return of red sorghum and cassava production under 'Cassava Acreage Reduction Program'. Cost of hybrid sorghum production was 628.42 baht per rai with the gross return of only 155.54 baht per rai; a loss of 428.88 baht per rai. Cost of cassava production was 833.74 baht per rai with the gross return of 767.00 baht or a net loss of 66.74 baht per rai. Red sorghum gave more risk in this instance and it was doubtful to use it in the substitution program unless other better solutions or measures are found and wisely applied.
