Castro predicts big Cuban sugar harvest with little impact on finances
U.S. officials estimate Cuba’s 1965 harvest of about 5.5 million tons, up from 3.8–4.2 million in prior years, aided by favorable weather. But falling world sugar prices, from over 12 cents to under 2 cents a pound, could reduce Havana’s earnings to around $155 million this year, far below $260 million in 1964.
