Bolivian sugarcane growers have declared an emergency following the government's halt on sugar exports. The Confederation National Cañeros de Bolivia (Concabol) president, Oscar Alberto Arnez, is calling for meetings with government officials to discuss the situation. The government has reduced the export quota, leading to a surplus of over 3.5 million quintals of sugar. This surplus, with a sales value of approximately $70 million, poses a concern for the sector as it is a source of foreign currency for the government. Arnez emphasizes that sugar levels for domestic consumption will not drop.
