"content": "Most state-owned sugar mills are operating old and inefficient machinery, thus limiting sugar production to about 700,241 metric tonnes against a domestic demand of about 1,100,000 metric tonnes a year. Bridging the deficit through importation from COMESA region and the international market is hurting the profitability of ailing local sugar millers. Notably, the cost of sugar production, especially by state-owned mills, is comparatively high due to inefficiencies along the value chain, inadequate maintenance of factory machinery and equipment, low sugar recovery as a result of poor cane quality, inappropriate processing technologies and low competencies."
