★What is Mascobado Sugar?
Sugarcane for Mascobado sugar is harvested systematically in cooperation with ATMC (Alternate Trade Mascobado Cooperative). After harvesting, the juice is boiled and concentrated as quickly as possible, then naturally dried while being stirred without any refining to produce powdered brown sugar.
This method of sugar production is called "Mascobado Sugar."
★A Product that Promotes Producer Self-Reliance
The sugarcane used for Mascobado sugar is primarily cultivated by former sugar plantation workers in Negros Island who obtained land through land reform.
Having worked as laborers on large landowners' sugarcane farms, they are now aiming for self-reliance by cultivating their own sugarcane on land they have dreamed of owning for many years.
The people's trade of Mascobado sugar began to support their self-reliance, as they previously had no choice but to work for low wages.
They are working to produce sugarcane, rice, vegetables, and other products using organic methods as much as possible through a cooperative system.
