dcterms.descriptionIn Mauritius, sugar cane plantations are gradually replacing tea plantations, for two simple reasons. Firstly, the quality of Mauritian tea does not compete well in the international market and secondly, the sugar industry has not yet filled the quotas agreed with the European Union (500,000 tonnes a year) and with other countries. The tea harvest is now sold mainly on the domestic market, and where there were, in 1994, 3,000 hectares of plantations, there are now only 700 hectares.
