The article provides calculations of the economic efficiency of growing seeds of new varieties of soybeans of domestic and foreign selection using different growing technologies. The purpose of the research was to scientifically substantiate the economic indicators of different technologies for growing soybeans. It was established that the choice of growing technology should depend on the conditions of the farm, varietal characteristics and resource capabilities. In most small and medium-sized farms, soybeans are grown mainly for their own needs, primarily to obtain high-quality seeds. Studies have shown that even with the basic technology, soybean varieties provide more than 200% profitability, which confirms the economic feasibility and efficiency of resource use without significant investments. Intensive technology requires more funding, but provides higher yields and significant net profit. Biologized technology combines high economic efficiency with environmental safety, which meets the modern requirements of sustainable agricultural production. It is promising for obtaining high-quality seeds at minimal cost and with high profitability
