The sugar tax has been delayed until 2018, but South Africa’s sugar industry
still faces tough times — even without the imposition of a tax on sugary
drinks.
A recent industry-commissioned report showed that, even under existing
circumstances, the sector faces potential job losses and mill closures.
The sector has seen decreased profitability in cane production, steady
declines in the number of hectares being used to grow sugar cane and falling
yields, according to a study by the Bureau for Food and Agricultural Policy at
the University of Pretoria.
Small-scale cane growers in particular have seen rapid declines, with 58 000
hectares going out of production in the past 20 years. As a result, there is
overcapacity at South Africa’s sugar mills.
