Profitability of sugar beet production in 2023/2024 campaign on example of Lublin Voivodeship [Poland]
2024
Krzysiak, Zbigniew
The work presents a complex analysis and cost accounting of sugar beet cultivation in the 2023/2024 campaign for individual farms of the Lublin region. The economic results obtained by the producers are mainly affected by indirect cost accounting. Within this group of costs, the major components are sowing service, harvest and soil liming operations. Sugar beet production in the analysed years was profitable, with the profitability index about 1.26 and the production cost was 48.64 EUR·tE−1. Sugar beet growing is considered one of the most profitmaking activities in agricultural production, even though it is characterized by the high overall production costs. However, the incomes are different in particular years. The main factor affecting the income from sugar beet cultivation was the price for the raw material, which increased by only 9.5 EUR in the considered marketing year compared to the previous season. The limitation of the presented analysis of the costs of cultivation and profitability of sugar beet production is its preparation for a model farm with specific criteria. Further research should be carried out taking into account the classification of the analysed farms into groups with different criteria. This will allow for a better approximation of the performed analyses of cultivation costs to the actual conditions. A good direction for the development of individual farms is to combine science with practice in the pursuit of cooperation between growers and scientists indicating the economics of sugar beet production.
