Mauritius now imports sugar for local consumption primarily due to a decline in domestic sugar production, which has been affected by factors such as climate change, reduced sugar cane acreage, and competition from cheaper imported sugars. Additionally, the local sugar industry has been facing challenges related to high production costs and the need to modernize. As a result, to meet local demand and stabilize prices, the country has turned to imports to ensure a consistent supply for its consumers.

The quota imposed on sugar imports into the U.S. restricts the amount of sugar that can be brought into the country, which aims to protect domestic sugar producers from foreign competition.

Additionally, the quota can create market inefficiencies and limit choices for consumers. Overall, while it supports local sugar farmers, it can have negative economic impacts on consumers and related industries.
