# Trade, Industry and Competition deputy minister Zuko Godlimpi has welcomed the signing of phase-two of the Sugarcane Value Chain Masterplan to 2030. He says the plan will focus on diversification, job creation and repositioning sugarcane as a broader industrial resource. Phase-two builds on earlier efforts to stabilise the sector. Industry stakeholders say the plan will support over one-million livelihoods, strengthen small-scale growers and promote local production amid rising costs and increasing competition from imports.
