Download Why are Kenyan’s paying more for their sugar?
The price of sugar is on the rise in Kenya and it’s really hitting people’s pockets.
It’s partly due to a shortage of sugarcane in the country.
In April, it was reported that some sugar mills were closing their operations, due to the lack of the raw material.
Amid a dispute with millers, some farmers are moving away from sugar to other crops.
So, what’s behind it all? And why are Kenyan’s paying more for their sugar?
