Commercial performance of sugar cane harvested in 1993

The analysis of commercial information is a fundamental reference point for diagnosing situations and for the subsequent planning of strategies within the framework of any productive sector. Based on this, CENICAÑA's Economics Unit continues to analyze the commercial production data for sugarcane and sugar produced by the 11 sugar mills affiliated with the Colombian Sugarcane Growers Association (ASOCAÑA).

The analysis is based on the 12.121 harvests reported by the 11 sugar mills during 1993, also taking as a reference the information corresponding to the period 1990 to 1992 in order to have an overview of the evolutionary process of the variables analyzed.

The data and figures presented in this study are an important starting point for internal analysis and decision-making by companies in the sugar production subsector, as they quantify variability and show trends in each of the main variables of interest to sugar mills and sugarcane growers.
