Brazilian sugar producers say their operations have been affected by nationwide truckers protests against high diesel prices that entered a third day on Wednesday, industry groups said on Wednesday.

It is reported by Reuters.

Cane industry group Unica said some sugar mills in the country’s center-south region reduced cane harvesting this week due to short diesel fuel supplies.

Unica also said there were reports of mills having to stop cane crushing operations due to insufficient raw material at the plants.
