The objective of the study was to determine the biological and technological characteristics of most commonly grown commercial sugar beet varieties in Serbia as well as some newly adopted varieties. Four small-scale field trials were set in 2008 which included 17 sugar beet varieties. The trials were set according to standard methods. Also, standard methods of analyses were applied in the sample testing and data processing. The trials were harvested in optimal term – second half of October. The achieved mean root yield, averaged over four localities and 17 varieties was excellent at 98.13 t/ha and the highest yield (106,63 t/ha) was recorded for the variety Marcus. Moreover, the varieties yielded high average root sugar contents of 16.05%, among which the variety Esprit performed best yielding 16.75%. High root yields and root sugar contents contributed to producing excellent mean granulated sugar contents of 13.788 t/ha. The best performing variety in this parameter was Tibor with mean granulated sugar content of 15.717 t/ha.
