Honduras: Sugar Annual

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)

Sugar production and exports are projected up in marketing year 2015/16. The increase is based on forecasts of improved yields due to better climatic conditions. The Government of Honduras (GOH) created the National Program for the Social and Community Development for the Families and Producers of Sugar Cane in 2014. The objective of the program is to provide incentives and funds for sugarcane planting and to promote sugar mill development in the eastern department of Olancho. In April 2015, the GOH issued a bid for a feasibility study to establish sugarcane plantations in support of two sugar mills for the production of sugar, energy, biogas, and ethanol.
