8 Countries That Produce The Most Sugar

4. Thailand

Annual Raw Sugar Production: 8.29 million metric tons

Thailand is the world’s third-largest sugar exporter, evidenced by the country’s $1.57 billion revenue from sugar exports in 2021. Sugar milling in Thailand faces a monopoly by large-scale millers since the government supports them with incentives and policies. The Thai sugar industry also emphasizes transforming bagasse, a byproduct of sugarcane processing, into renewable energy.
