Global Sugar Cane Losses Share by Country (Thousand Metric Tons)

In 2023, Brazil dominated global sugar cane losses with a staggering 68.19 thousand metric tons, accounting for the vast majority of total losses worldwide. India and China followed, though at a much lower magnitude, with values of 7.26 and 4.1 thousand metric tons respectively. The variation trends over the last two years show noteworthy shifts such as Brazil's slight increase by 0.24%, and substantial declines in India and China by -0.71% and -1.57% respectively. Pakistan and Australia showed positive increment trends of 2.04% and 1.27% respectively, indicating increasing losses in these countries.

Another notable trend is the significant increase of 8.45% in Malaysia, contrasting sharply with Afghanistan, which reported a -100% change, indicative of the complete elimination of reported losses. The average variation per year over the last five years illustrates a mix of increment and decrement across various countries, signifying fluctuating dynamics in global sugar cane losses.

Future trends to watch for in global sugar cane losses include potential increasing losses in developing countries with expanding agricultural activities and the impacts of climatic changes. Countries like Brazil are expected to maintain their substantial share, though efforts in mitigation and technology may alter these trends significantly.
