Sugar Industry Overview:
Sugarcane is one of the most important cash crops and the industry is considered as the driving engine of
the rural economy in Pakistan. Pakistan is the world’s fifth largest producer of sugarcane in terms of
acreage, and the 15th
largest producer of sugar. The sugar industry is the country’s second largest agro-
industry sector after textiles.
4. In Pakistan both the crop and industry is termed as a vehicle for rural uplift and development. The sugar
industry is cyclical in nature. The harvesting of sugar cane is dependent on weather as well as the
availability of adequate water. The sugarcane yield and recovery rates are considered as the determinants
for the production of raw and refined sugar. In 2011-12, heavy rainfall followed by favorable condition
helped increase sugar production and accordingly the price of sugar eased in the domestic market. Total
sugarcane production in 2011-12 was reported as 58.03 million tons, compared to 55.4 million tons for
the year 2010-11. The sugar production from above crop was reported as 4.4638 million tons by the close
of crushing season, which surpassed earlier estimates of 4.4 million tons. The industry overall performed
fairly well during the season 2011-12.
Total consumption over the year is increasing mainly due to the growing demand by the processed food
sector. Bulk sugar consumers such as bakeries, candy, ice cream and soft drink manufactures account for
about 60% of the total sugar demand. Sugar cane by-product includes molasses, press mud and Bagasse.
Molasses is utilized in the production of Ethanol in the distilleries and has become an important part in
the overall profitability of sugar mills. The Bagasse that remains after sugar cane crushing is burnt to
provide heat-used in the mills and generation of electricity. It is also used as raw material for paper and
chipboard production.
The estimated area of sugarcane during the crop cycle 2012-13 is reported around 1.13 million hectares
compared to 1.057 million hectares during preceding crop cycle, i.e., 2011-12. It is estimated that sugar
production from an area of 1.13 million hectares would give an approximate yield of 64 million tons of
sugarcane based on 56 tons per hectare. The sugar production is likely to be around 5 million tons against
estimated domestic consumption 4.337 million tons.
