The dynamics of sugar beet production for the period 2000-2019 is studied and the organizational model of selection and seed production of agricultural crops in the country is described. The scheme of seed production of hybrids on a sterile basis is shown, which shows the path of a sugar beet hybrid from a scientific institution to the production of seeds for growing factory root crops. A set of measures for the development of sugar beet breeding and seed production in the country is proposed, which include the following: improvement of existing legislation, creation of special breeding and seed centres, strengthening of financial support for breeding and seed production by the state, focusing on targeted support, formation of innovative infrastructure in the sub-sector, improvement and development of the system of training and retraining of breeders and agronomists in the country.
