Sugarcane| Sugarcane mills in Brazil's center-south

Sugarcane mills in Brazil's center-south produced 383,000 tonnes of sugar in the second half of December, up 210% from a year ago, as mills try to make up for weeks lost to rain this season. Although crushing in the region came in at 10.4 million ton of cane during the two-week period - roughly on par with market expectations.
