THE current drought induced by the El Nino phenomenon will not have any impact on the availability of sugar on the market, industry players have said.

The Zimbabwe Sugar Association , an umbrella body representing cane millers, has assured consumers that there are adequate stocks of sugar from the previous milling season enough to last until March 2025.

"The ZSA wishes to advise stakeholders and the general public that there will be adequate sugar supply for both household and industrial consumption despite the current El Nino induced drought that the country has experienced which has affected the harvest expected from the other agricultural crops," he said.

"Due to the good rainfall received in the last agriculture season, the major dams that supply water for sugar cane irrigation in the Lowveld have sufficient water to last the next two seasons."
