FIELD: sugar industry. SUBSTANCE: method for production of extractant fluid to extract sugar from beet chips includes steps of beet pulp water alkalization; separation of resultant residue; mixing of purified beet pulp water with barometric water; and sulfitation. The beet pulp water alkalization is effected with the residue of the first saturation juice filtration in the amount of 5-15% to its mass. before the separation of the residue the resulting suspension is saturated to pH 8.3-8.5. The mixture of beet pulp and barometric waters is sulfurized to pH 5.8-6.1. EFFECT: increased efficiency of the process. 1 tbl
