Summary: A characteristic feature of the current stage of human development is the search for alternative energy sources and the development of bioenergy production. The article considers topical issues of biofuels production from organic waste produced by agricultural enterprises. The life cycle of agricultural biomass (waste) generation, its processing into biofuels and use for energy purposes is analyzed. An algorithm for calculating the cost of biofuels from agricultural production waste is presented. It is substantiated that the main research methods used in studying the raw material potential of waste are desk research and the method of business contacts. It is proved that raw materials make up a significant part of the cost of biofuels from agricultural waste, and since the cost of waste is a fairly conventional value, further research is needed in the formation of methods for their evaluation. A method for calculating the share of traditional fuels, which can be replaced by biofuels from crop waste, is proposed. The peculiarity of the proposed method is the calculation of the share of waste (by-products), which should be used for the production of solid biofuels, as part of the waste must remain in the fields to preserve soil fertility. A method for calculating the share of natural gas, heat and electricity, which can be replaced by similar products obtained from livestock waste by bioconversion. The peculiarity of the proposed method is that it takes into account that biogas is inferior to natural gas in terms of energy output and there is a need to enrich it to the level of biomethane, if a direct target replacement is envisaged. A method of calculating the economic benefit from the replacement of traditional fuels with biofuels from the company`s own waste is proposed, which provides for the comparison of the cost of biofuels with the price of traditional energy sources
