Competition from other producers, notably French controlled islands like Guadaloupe. Gov't protection in the form of taxes, edicts and licenced piracy were required to enforce trade restrictions with these competitors.

Personnel management. Sugar production was labor intensive and labor (slaves) outnumbered management 10 to 1. There was a shortage of skilled managers who could successfully direct and control labor without fomenting insurrection.
