茂名市作为粤西蔗糖生产的主要基地,近几年来一直把蔗糖生产作为一项重要工作来抓,使蔗糖业有了很大的发展。但是,蔗糖生产发展并不理想,存在蔗农种蔗积极性不、面积减少、产量下降、效益差等问题,“甜蜜的事业”令人忧虑。为此,我们对茂名市糖蔗种植和食糖产销等方面进行了深入的调查,现将情况综述如下: 一、糖蔗种植面积减少,蔗农种蔗积极性不高。去年糖蔗实际播种面积11.15万亩,比上年下降14.7％,主要是:一方面原制定的优惠政策得不到落实。另一方面种蔗收益远低于种水稻和其他经济作物的收益。二、糖蔗栽培技术措施不落实,产量普遍下降。一 Maoming City, as the main base of sucrose production in western Guangdong, sucrose production has been taken as an important task in recent years to make the sucrose industry have a great development. However, the development of sucrose production is not ideal, and there are some problems such as the enthusiasm of sugarcane farmers, the area reduction, the decline of output and poor efficiency. The “sweet cause” is worrying. To this end, we conducted an in-depth investigation of sugar cane planting and sugar production and marketing in Maoming City. Now we summarize the situation as follows: First, the area of ​​sugarcane planting is reduced, and the enthusiasm of sugarcane planting sugarcane is not high. Last year, the actual sown area of ​​sugar cane 11.15 hectares, down 14.7% over the previous year, mainly: on the one hand the original preferential policies can not be implemented. On the other hand, the income of seed cane is much lower than that of rice and other cash crops. Second, sugarcane cultivation techniques are not implemented, the general decline in output. one
