Since this kind of sugar cane is sold in a very different market from the purple-skinned fruit sugar cane, it will be affected by some international prices.

Therefore, it is mainly used for sugar production and is purchased by sugar factories for sugar production.

Therefore, when purchasing sugarcane, sugar mills will take into account the international sugarcane price factor. The price per ton will refer to the price of some sugarcane producing areas such as Southeast Asia. Therefore, the purchase price of sugarcane will definitely be affected by external price factors in the future.
