The study aimed to identify the production of sugar cane and sugar beet in Egypt and the indicators of productive and economic efficiency of both crops. In addition to study exports and imports of raw and refined sugar and the operation efficiency of sugar factories in Egypt for both crops, the area supplied and the amount of sugar produced from sugar cane and sugar beet. Discuss the possibility of expanding the area cultivated of sugar beet to increase the production of sugar and decrease the imports of sugar.The study based on published secondary data. The study used a descriptive and quantitative statistic as analytical statistical methods. The results of the study showed that: the area and the productivity of sugar beet increased by a statistically significant annual rate about 9.89% and 10.05% respectively during the period (2000-2016). Farm price, costs, total income and net revenue increased with a statistically significant annual rate for sugar cane and sugar beet. The comparison between sugar cane and sugar beet showed that sugar beet was better than sugarcane in most indicators of productive and economic efficiency. The total operating capacity of sugar cane factories was about 9.06 million tons, and the total design capacity of sugar cane factories was about 10.2 million tons in 2016. While the total operating capacity of sugar beet factories was about 9.09 million tons, and the total design capacity of sugar beet factories was about 8.3 million tons in 2016. Total amount of sugar produced from sugar cane was about 931.28 thousand tons, and total sugar produced from sugar beet factories was about 1.27 million tons in 2016. The average value of exports of raw sugar was about 12.21 million dollars, while the average value of imports of raw sugar reached about 308.8 million dollars during the period (2000-2016). The average value of exports of refined sugar was about 79.9 million dollars, while the average value of imports of refined sugar was about 64.1 million dollars during the period (2000-2016). The study recommends increasing the area cultivated with sugar beet. And increasing the number of sugar beet factories.
