SUMMARY

The report reviews the role of sugar in Swaziland's economy and the scope for expansion and development of the sugar industry. It also reviews the effectiveness of the present legislation with respect to development of the sugar industry, including its effects on production, domestic and international trade and marketing and pricing. It assesses the role of stakeholders, including, in particular, small-scale farmers, in sugar production and trade, and identifies constraints to the expansion of production and participation in the industry by small-scale sugar farmers. Finally, it proposes measures to eliminate or reduce those constraints, including international assistance. [English only]
