Construction work on the EcoFarm Moçambique Lda cane sugar production plant is due to be completed next November after it began last April, said the director of the District Economic Activity Bureau of Chemba.
Emanuel Mandava also told daily newspaper Diário de Moçambique, which is published in the city of Beira, that the transformation of sugarcane into several types of sugar will start as soon as the works are completed.
Mandava said that EcoFarm Mozambique has 3,490 hectares of land for planting sugarcane, with 1,990 reserved for the company itself and the remaining 1,500 for production cooperatives.
With the start-up of the Chemba unit, Sofala province will have three sugar production companies in operation in Mafambisse, Dondo and Sena in Marromeu, with the Buzi plant yet to be rebuilt.
The EcoFarm Moçambique plantation is located in the district of Chemba, 565 kilometres from the city of Beira, the provincial capital of Sofala, where it will produce organic sugar for export to European countries.
A livestock farm, called Tsoni Farm, is also included in the business plan submitted by South African investors to produce fertilisers from the animal waste to be used by the sugarcane plantation.
