Abstract

Projections of U.S. sugarbeet acreage are made under alternative prices for raw sugar and for major crops that compete with beets by using an econometric model of the sugarbeet production sector. Raw sugar prices (New York spot) of about 16 to 22 cents per pound will probably be needed to maintain the 1976 sugarbeet acreage in 1980. Significant regional shifts in the location of production are likely, regardless of future sugar prices.
