Earlier Report Observations

The sugar cane market in Belize began the period at 1.7 million tons in 2018, with the crop being a key pillar of the national economy. Government legislation aimed at curbing speculation on agricultural land affected the expansion of cultivation. Production increased to 1.8 million tons in 2019, but then fell to 1.5 million tons in 2020 as the industry demonstrated its vulnerability to swings in international prices and preferential trade agreements, particularly with the United States.

A significant recovery followed in 2021, with market volume jumping to 1.9 million tons. This growth was facilitated by the prime minister's successful mediation to resolve conflicts between sugar cane producers and refineries, allowing operations to resume smoothly. After a modest decline to 1.8 million tons in 2022, production dropped again to 1.5 million tons in 2023. During this time, the government ruled out nationalizing the sugar sector and instead maintained a dialogue focused on securing better prices and benefits for farmers.
