“Kenana, on the other hand, possibly the world’s largest sugar project, is aimed essentially at export markets and both ownership and management have been organised along different lines. The estate consists of 84,078 acres and the factory is designed to crush 17,000 tons of sugar-cane daily throughout the 218-day season. This would suggest a capacity for producing 330,000 tons
of white sugar per annum. The study will highlight the importance of reliable statistical data and the importance of the price guarantee for its social viability. A brief background is provided immediately highlighting relevant considerations, followed by an assessment of the viability of the project.”
