By analyzing the data collected at the center-of-mass energy Ecm=3.773 GeV and below the D[overline D] meson pair production threshold with the BES-II detector at the BEPC Collider, we directly measured the observed non-D[overline D] cross section of psi(3770) decay to be sigmapsi(3770) --> non-D[overline D]obs=(0.95±0.35±0.29) nb at Ecm=3.773 GeV, and the branching fraction BF[psi(3770)-->non-D[overline D]]=(13.4±5.0±3.6)% for inclusive non-D[overline D] decay of psi(3770). We also determined the cross section for D[overline D] meson pair production to be sigmaD[overline D]obs=(6.12±0.37±0.23) nb at Ecm=3.773 GeV.
