Fiji's Sugar Woes: The Challenge of the Land Tenure System, Ethnicity and the Erosion of EU Sugar Preferences

The non-renewal of land leases since 1997 and the impending withdrawal of the European Union’'s sugar preferences in 2007 have created major uncertainties in Fiji’'s sugar industry. In the context of this troubled environment, this paper examines the impact of various socio-economic factors on the viability of the industry by focusing on farm efficiency in sugar cane production. It was found that, in general, farmers were inefficient and produced 25% less than their potential output. Among the farm inputs, land (labour) was relatively the most (least) efficiently used input. Empirical evidence also suggests that the more productive Indian farmers rather than the natives be left to farm cane and that large scale farming should be seriously considered by...

ANÁLISIS DE SENSIBILIDAD DE LA PRODUCCIÓN DE CAÑA DE AZÚCAR CON DOS TECNOLOGÍAS DE RIEGO (GOTEO Y GRAVEDAD) EN ZAPOTILTIC, JALISCO (PARTE 2)

The objective is to make the investment sensibility analysis in drop irrigation by gravity in sugar cane production, there are three variables involved into the sensibility analysis for both of the irrigation systems: Cane production by hectare (it was sensibilized to low prices), sell price for sugar cane ton (it was sensibilized to low prices), and variations in the production's direct costs (sensibilized to high prices). The Novelo's methodology for sensibility analysis (1944) was used. The three variables involved into the sensibility analysis showed differences to support the outcome results got with the irrigation drop system over the irrigation gravity system by drop.
