CEFS SUGAR STATISTICS

INDEX CEFS STATISTICS 2015

Tables 4, 5 and 7 (respectively concerning average sugar yield, average sugar content in beet when delivered and average length of the beet sugar

campaign) show weighted EU averages (weighted by sugar production-Table 4 – or the sugar beet production –Tables 5 and 7- of each country on that given year) for the entire range of years. Arithmetical averages are no longer used.

INTRODUCTION TO THE 2015 EDITION OF CEFS STATISTICS

Following the 2013/14 campaign (11.0 tonnes/ha), the 2014/15 campaign holds a new record as it surpasses the 2011/2012 campaign (11.9 tonnes/ha) with an EU average of 12.7 tonnes/ha. This campaign still continues to maintain the increasing productivity levels achieved already by campaign 2008/09 (10.8 tonnes/ha). In addition to (and sometimes, despite) continuous improvements in beet cultivation and sugar extraction techniques, our 2015 Statistics still remind us that weather conditions remain an important variable in beet sugar production influencing both total sugar production as well as the relative sugar yields.

In the 2014/15 campaign beet sugar production is distributed among 19 EU28 countries as opposed to 23 before the restructuring, with 70% of the production concentrated in 4 countries. The 19 countries also include Croatia which joined the European Union as the 28th Member State in the year 2013. [Ndr. If all uses of beet sugar –food and non-food- are considered together that percentage represented 80% for the first 6 producing countries in the EU28 in 2015-See graph below]

The EU sugar sector after the 2006 Sugar Reform (Extract from The European Sugar Sector, a sustainable and reliable supplier for consumers (2010) – available under www.cefs.org)

Beet and sugar production in the EU is based on a market organisation, known as the common market organisation of the sugar sector or Sugar CMO. In 2006, this CMO was thoroughly reformed leading to a large reduction in quota sugar production of around 6 Mio tonnes (-30%). This left a remaining quota sugar production of around 13.3 Mio tonnes. Key to the reform was a 36% cut in the reference sugar price (from €631.9/tonne in 2006/2007 to €404.4/tonne in 2009/2010) and the removal of the intervention mechanism that guaranteed a minimum sugar price. Measures were taken to compensate farmers and a Restructuring Fund, financed by sugar producers, was set up to encourage less competitive sugar producers to leave the industry.

In the years leading up to and following the adoption of the CMO reform, the number of EU sugar factories has fallen sharply as the industry has undergone major restructuring driven by the need to improve efficiency. Virtually every country and region of the EU has been affected. This restructuring process has been radical. In the period 2000-2005 68 factories were closed, an average of 11 per year. Between 2006 and 2008 a further 83 factories were closed (almost 28 per year!), resulting in an overall reduction of 60% of European processing capacity between 2000 and 2008. At the same time, average factory size has continued to increase, in particular in Western European countries (EU15) which represent about 85% of the total EU beet sugar production (status in 2009). However with Croatia joining the European Union in 2013, 3 factories were added. Since 2010, the number of factories has remained stabled to 109 across EU28. The number of employees in the sector has followed suit. Between 2004 and 2009, for example, the number of employees in the sector has fallen by 44%. Despite this reduction, the sugar industry retains an important economic function in rural areas, where it guarantees jobs and training positions. As well as processing sugar beet, sugar factories are a partner for numerous small businesses and ancillary suppliers. Taking into account both direct and indirect employment the beet sugar industry in the EU supports about 180.000 jobs and contributes to the revenue of 140.000 farms (2013, source: CIBE, CEFS & EFFAT, EU Beet Sugar Sustainability Partnership).

As the sugar quotas will be ending in 2017, as a result of the reform of the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) which entered into force on the 1st of January 2014, the landscape of EU beet sugar production will have to adapt to the new EU framework i.e. the EU will have one of the most liberal markets in the world.
