Kenya: Sugar Annual
FAS/Nairobi forecasts a decrease in Kenya’s sugar production in the marketing year (MY) 2016/2017 as cane farmers move to produce other products such as dairy and horticulture. Consumption is forecast to increase modestly and the deficit will be offset by a draw-down of stocks and imports. The import safeguard that limits duty free imports from Common Market for Eastern and Southern Africa (COMESA) countries is still in place.
