Ukraine’s sugar producers have completed the 2024 production season, the press service of the National Association of Sugar Producers of Ukraine (Ukrtsukor) reported on its Facebook page.
According to the press service, 28 member plants of the association produced 1.724 million tons of sugar. In addition, in the 2024-2025 production year, another sugar plant that is not a member of the association also operated in Ukraine. According to the industry association, the total sugar production in the country amounted to 1.8 million tons.
“Thus, the volume of production in 2024 is actually equal to the figures of 2023, when the country produced 1.826 million tons,” Ukrtsukr summarized.
As reported by Interfax-Ukraine, citing data from the Ukrtsukor association, 37 sugar factories operated in Ukraine in 2023. One plant in the Kharkiv region, located in the de-occupied territory, was not ready to enter the processing season, as farmers in the region had not sown sugar beets.
