The signing of Phase 2 of the Sugarcane Value Chain Master Plan 2030 took place at KwaShukela in Durban, bringing together government, industry leaders, growers, and key stakeholders aligned on the future of the sector.

This next phase focuses on strengthening the local market, driving diversification within the value chain, and reinforcing measures that protect the industry from external pressures. It reflects a collective commitment to safeguarding jobs, supporting small-scale growers, and sustaining rural livelihoods across KwaZulu-Natal and Mpumalanga.

As the industry prepares for the upcoming crushing season, this moment signals renewed momentum and a unified approach to long-term growth and resilience.
