The paper focuses on costs and yields of sugar beet in the Czech Republic in the context of economic efficiency and competitiveness in the period 2007-2011. The results are based on a sample survey of product costs and yields of agricultural commodities which has been carried out annually by the Institute of Agricultural Economics and Information. The economic efficiency is evaluated using Data Envelopment Analysis method (DEA). The paper also presents international comparison of the cost structure of sugar beet growing based on Agri benchmark Cash Crop network. Based on that, cost and revenues for the individual crops on "typical farms" are calculated for the various locations. The results show decreasing average cost per tonne of root, especially staff costs, and increasing profitability of Czech sugar beet producers between 2007 and 2011. Most producers are highly economically effective. However, there is potential in efficiency of material costs and sugar yields. Sugar beet seems to maintain its irreplaceable position in the Czech agriculture.
