Answer:
Both Cuba and Brazil are major world producers of sugar.
Explanation:
Both Latin-American countries Cuba and Brazil are major world producers of sugar. In the case of Cuba, the Island was, until the 1960s, the biggest exporter of sugarcane in the world, as the United States' 33% imports of sugar all came from Cuba. During the Cold War, the Soviet Union started to buy sugar to Cuba, but after this agreement expired Cuba's production of sugar decreased significantly. Nowadays, Cuba still produces sugar and it is one of the major producers of the product in Latin-America. Brazil on the other hand, is the biggest producer and exporter of sugar in the world. Almost 52% of all of the sugar available in the markets around the world comes from Brazil.
