Nicaragua: Sugar Annual

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)   |   NU2025-0001
FAS/Managua projects MY 2025/26 sugar production to reach 840,000 metric tons, up ten percent from MY 2024/25, assuming a more balanced rainy season and an increase in sugarcane plantations. In MY 2024/25, sugar production dropped five percent from the previous year due to a La Niña weather cycle in the second half of 2024, which had a negative impact on sugarcane industrial yields. Nicaragua continues to diversify its export markets, with China ranking among the top three destinations in calendar year 2024.
