The research works based on an economic study on sugar beet crop in Syria
during the period (1985 2003), and its prospectives taking into account the
cultivated area, yield and total production in order to know the extent of
cultivation developmen
t and the factors influencing this crop.
Results showed that the area under sugar beet was unstable, which
negatively reflected on the yield and production during the studied period.
However, these changes were not statistically important for the cultivated
area (non-significant regression), while the regression was significant for the
yield and production.
