Mills in the south-central region of Brazil processed 38.6 million tons of sugarcane during the first half of June, up 5.76 percent when compared to the same period of last year.
Since the start of the current harvest season, which began April 1, mills in the region have processed 145.72 million tons of sugarcane, down 12.71 percent when compared to the same period of 2021.
According to UNICA, 250 production units were operational as of June 16, down from 254 units that were operating at the same time last year. An additional four units were expected to begin operations during the second half of June.
