Nicaragua: Sugar Annual
For 2014/2015, the Nicaraguan Sugar Commission (CNPA) anticipates a sugar cane harvest of sugar 7.2 million MT with a total sugar production of 728,042 MT, a 4 percent decreased compared to the previous year. The decrease in production is attributed to the prolonged drought that affected Nicaragua in 2014. For 2015/2016, the Nicaraguan Sugar Industry expects an increase of 7 percent in sugar production reaching over 770,000 MT.
