Background

Frequent consumption of excess amounts of sugar‐sweetened beverages (SSB) is a risk factor for obesity, type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease and dental caries. Environmental interventions, i.e. interventions that alter the physical or social environment in which individuals make beverage choices, have been advocated as a means to reduce the consumption of SSB.

Objectives

To assess the effects of environmental interventions (excluding taxation) on the consumption of sugar‐sweetened beverages and sugar‐sweetened milk, diet‐related anthropometric measures and health outcomes, and on any reported unintended consequences or adverse outcomes.

Search methods

We searched 11 general, specialist and regional databases from inception to 24 January 2018. We also searched trial registers, reference lists and citations, scanned websites of relevant organisations, and contacted study authors.

Selection criteria

We included studies on interventions implemented at an environmental level, reporting effects on direct or indirect measures of SSB intake, diet‐related anthropometric measures and health outcomes, or any reported adverse outcome. We included randomised controlled trials (RCTs), non‐randomised controlled trials (NRCTs), controlled before‐after (CBA) and interrupted‐time‐series (ITS) studies, implemented in real‐world settings with a combined length of intervention and follow‐up of at least 12 weeks and at least 20 individuals in each of the intervention and control groups. We excluded studies in which participants were administered SSB as part of clinical trials, and multicomponent interventions which did not report SSB‐specific outcome data. We excluded studies on the taxation of SSB, as these are the subject of a separate Cochrane Review.

Data collection and analysis

Two review authors independently screened studies for inclusion, extracted data and assessed the risks of bias of included studies. We classified interventions according to the NOURISHING framework, and synthesised results narratively and conducted meta‐analyses for two outcomes relating to two intervention types. We assessed our confidence in the certainty of effect estimates with the GRADE framework as very low, low, moderate or high, and presented ‘Summary of findings’ tables.

Main results

We identified 14,488 unique records, and assessed 1030 in full text for eligibility. We found 58 studies meeting our inclusion criteria, including 22 RCTs, 3 NRCTs, 14 CBA studies, and 19 ITS studies, with a total of 1,180,096 participants. The median length of follow‐up was 10 months. The studies included children, teenagers and adults, and were implemented in a variety of settings, including schools, retailing and food service establishments. We judged most studies to be at high or unclear risk of bias in at least one domain, and most studies used non‐randomised designs. The studies examine a broad range of interventions, and we present results for these separately.

Labelling interventions (8 studies): We found moderate‐certainty evidence that traffic‐light labelling is associated with decreasing sales of SSBs, and low‐certainty evidence that nutritional rating score labelling is associated with decreasing sales of SSBs. For menu‐board calorie labelling reported effects on SSB sales varied.

Nutrition standards in public institutions (16 studies): We found low‐certainty evidence that reduced availability of SSBs in schools is associated with decreased SSB consumption. We found very low‐certainty evidence that improved availability of drinking water in schools and school fruit programmes are associated with decreased SSB consumption. Reported associations between improved availability of drinking water in schools and student body weight varied.

Economic tools (7 studies): We found moderate‐certainty evidence that price increases on SSBs are associated with decreasing SSB sales. For price discounts on low‐calorie beverages reported effects on SSB sales varied.

Whole food supply interventions (3 studies): Reported associations between voluntary industry initiatives to improve the whole food supply and SSB sales varied.

Retail and food service interventions (7 studies): We found low‐certainty evidence that healthier default beverages in children’s menus in chain restaurants are associated with decreasing SSB sales, and moderate‐certainty evidence that in‐store promotion of healthier beverages in supermarkets is associated with decreasing SSB sales. We found very low‐certainty evidence that urban planning restrictions on new fast‐food restaurants and restrictions on the number of stores selling SSBs in remote communities are associated with decreasing SSB sales. Reported associations between promotion of healthier beverages in vending machines and SSB intake or sales varied.

Intersectoral approaches (8 studies): We found moderate‐certainty evidence that government food benefit programmes with restrictions on purchasing SSBs are associated with decreased SSB intake. For unrestricted food benefit programmes reported effects varied. We found moderate‐certainty evidence that multicomponent community campaigns focused on SSBs are associated with decreasing SSB sales. Reported associations between trade and investment liberalisation and SSB sales varied.

Home‐based interventions (7 studies): We found moderate‐certainty evidence that improved availability of low‐calorie beverages in the home environment is associated with decreased SSB intake, and high‐certainty evidence that it is associated with decreased body weight among adolescents with overweight or obesity and a high baseline consumption of SSBs.

Adverse outcomes reported by studies, which may occur in some circumstances, included negative effects on revenue, compensatory SSB consumption outside school when the availability of SSBs in schools is reduced, reduced milk intake, stakeholder discontent, and increased total energy content of grocery purchases with price discounts on low‐calorie beverages, among others. The certainty of evidence on adverse outcomes was low to very low for most outcomes.

We analysed interventions targeting sugar‐sweetened milk separately, and found low‐ to moderate‐certainty evidence that emoticon labelling and small prizes for the selection of healthier beverages in elementary school cafeterias are associated with decreased consumption of sugar‐sweetened milk. We found low‐certainty evidence that improved placement of plain milk in school cafeterias is not associated with decreasing sugar‐sweetened milk consumption.

Authors' conclusions

The evidence included in this review indicates that effective, scalable interventions addressing SSB consumption at a population level exist. Implementation should be accompanied by high‐quality evaluations using appropriate study designs, with a particular focus on the long‐term effects of approaches suitable for large‐scale implementation.

At the beginning of the twentieth century, the Australians were possessed by two obsessions – the fear of the ›yellow peril‹ and the desire for a white society. The fear of the ›yellow peril‹ found expression in science and politics as well as in innumerable invasion novels which depicted the swamping of the European outpost in the Pacific by Asiatic hordes. The programme of a white society was reasoned scientifically and found political supporters not least in the labour movement. Moreover, it found expression in a medium which was even more popular than pulp fiction: consumer racism which propagated the consumption of ›white sugar‹. ›White sugar‹ was a very special commodity: refined white and produced white, it comprised white labourers, dearer sweetness, protection from the world market, and gaining of intra-continental acceptance through subsidies. Certainly there were countless points of contact between colour discrimination and thinking in terms of whiteness. In the context of the European diggers’ rebellions on the goldfields, the workers’ strikes against the replacement of white with Chinese labour and clashes with Aborigines on the colonial frontier, the whites’ anger was given vent to. But these were largely isolated incidents involving concrete problems and select societal groups. Invasion novels and sugar consumption, on the other hand, aimed at the whole society. The problem to turn the empty north, considered ›terra nullius‹, into a breeding ground for whiteness and, thus, into a bulwark against the ›yellow peril‹ was considered problematic, however. This was due to the utilization interest of the agrarian capital as well as the phantasies of degeneration of race sciences. While the latter were not sure whether whites would altogether proof to be able to successfully settle in the tropics, the former were mainly interested in the exploitation of cheap labour. This paper will look into the ways in which the campaigns to consume white-produced Australian sugar and the genre of invasion novels accomplished to subsume lobbies of adverse interests in the joint pursuit of white Australia.

বাংলা Sugar Industry From very ancient times Bangladesh has been growing sugarcane for making gud or sukker or khandeswari. Such sweeteners are also produced from date and palm juice. Bengal was well known for quality sugar in the 16th century. The east india company exported large quantities of sugar from Bengal every year. The volume was 820,186 maunds (1 maund = 37.65 kg) in 1795 and 3,324,168 maunds in 1805. Production of beet sugar caused decline in production of cane sugar towards 1840. Later, the sugar industry suffered seriously due to diversion of land to jute. Under British rule, India could not produce enough sugar to meet demands of the domestic market although it continued to export it under colonial circumstances, largely to European countries. The gap was met by import mainly from Java. In 1947, East Pakistan inherited only a few sugar mills located at Rajshahi (Gopalpur), Dinajpur (Setabganj), Kushtia (Darshana), Dhaka (Chittaranjan and Arikhola), and Mymensingh (Kishoreganj). The total cane crushing capacity of these mills was only 4,350 metric tons. In 1947, sugarcane occupied less than 1 percent of the cropped area. The East Pakistan Industrial Development Corporation planned to establish 10 new sugar mills to raise production capacity to 1 million metric tons. But by 1956, only 5 mills could be established and the production stood at only 26,000 metric tons. Sugar industry plays an important role in the economy of Bangladesh by way of farming and creation of employment. The industry is under the Bangladesh Sugar and Food Industries Corporation (BSFIC). By-products of sugar mills have many uses. Molasses and bagasse are inputs for other industries. Around 425,000 acres of land are under sugarcane and the annual production is about 7.5 million tons, of which only 2.28 million tons are used in sugar mills and the rest goes to molasses making. Bangladesh now produces about 150,000 tons of sugar, 100,000 tons of molasses and 800,000 tons of bagasse per year. The country, however, ranks the lowest in the world in per acre yield of sugarcane-only 15 tons, while the comparative figures for Cuba, Indonesia, Australia and Hawaii are 36, 45, 55 and 70 tons respectively. Recovery of sugar from cane is also the poorest in Bangladesh-only 7.4% compared to 9% in Indonesia, 12.3% in Cuba, 12.4% in Hawaii and 15.6% in Australia. In the 1980s, the industry employed 15% of the labour force and had 30% of the fixed assets of the food industry as a whole. With 1.5% of world production, Bangladesh ranked 67th among the 130 sugar producing countries. In 2012, the country has 15 sugar mills at Panchagarh, Thakurgaon, Setabganj, Rangpur, Shyampur, Rajshahi, Mahimaganj, Jaipurhat, Darshana, Kushtia, Mobarakganj, Jamalpur, Kaliachapra, Narsingdi, and Pabna. The estimated total annual production capacity of these mills was about 215,000 tons but the mills did not work in full capacity and, therefore, the production remained far less than the country's total estimated annual demand of about 400,000 tons. The total harvesting season between 1972 and 2009 is 34, of which sugar production faced damage of 20 and profit of 14 seasons. The demand of sugar is 12-14 lacs metric tons per year in the country. It is claimed that the production capacity of 15 state owned sugar mills is 2.15 lacs metric tons. But apparently the mills can produce less than 1 lac metric tons. During the crushing season of 2011-2012, the cane cultivation covered an area of 1,69,000 acres of land with a production of about 40 lacs tons. With deduction of nearby 10 lacs tons cane (for chewing consumption and grafting preservation), about 30 lacs tons should go to the sugar mills for manufacture of sugar. But less than 50% of the cultivated cane normally supplied to the mills. It is mainly for the high price of gur in the market and the complexities in getting payment of the supply of sugarcane to the mills. Sugar might be an export commodity and Bangladesh can earn foreign currency provided that following measures are taken, such as modernisation of mills, full fledged cane cultivation, lending of money to cane growers on easy terms, permission to refineries in full capacity production, modern technology and use of modern equipments in cane cultivation and sugar production, prevent equipment and system loss, malpractices of mill staff and proper and extensive use of by-products of sugar mills.

An edited version of this paper was published in the Philippine Law Journal, Volume 93, No. 2 (April 2020)

The Philippines is the 8th largest sugar producing country in the world, but not a major player in the international sugar trade because of higher production costs. 1 The industry is highly regulated with quantitative import/export restrictions and production quotas, which impact sugar output, supply, and prices. There have been reports of a cartel among sugar traders and other anti-competitive conduct. It appears that the newly-formed Philippine Competition Commission (PCC) has similar concerns when it included the sugar industry in its 2019 priorities for market investigation.

If the competition concerns can be substantiated, we have a curious case of government regulations facilitating collusion and other anti-competitive conduct, or at least, failing to thwart them. It can mean a confrontation between the PCC and the Sugar Regulatory Administration (SRA), and not to mention an old, but still strong political class with ties to the industry. This paper analyses the possible competition issues in the sugar sector and the interface between sector-specific regulations and competition rules. To understand these competition issues, we take a brief overview of the structures and practices in the industry that have deep historical roots dating back to American colonial times (Part I). It analyses their anti-competitive effects within the industry itself, on consumers, and downstream manufacturing industry (Part II). The paper does not attempt to conclusively prove anti-competitive behaviour, which will require a thorough sector investigation. However, it identifies possible competition issues, based on existing literature on competition and the sugar industries in the Philippines and other countries.

To address these issues, we need to know the competition law framework and its boundaries with sector regulations. Part III summarizes the Philippine Competition Act’s (PCA) key provisions, prohibited acts, and PCC’s powers vis-à-vis sector regulators. Possible overlaps between competition and regulation are discussed in Part IV. In view of the competition framework and overlap with regulations, and the structural, behavioural and regulatory constraints identified in the first four parts, Part V delves into approaches that a nascent competition authority can take as it tests its wings and attempts to establish a strong competition framework, while avoiding unnecessary conflicts with sector regulators and the political establishment, which can clip the wings of the competition law before it can take flight.

RESUMEN Durante la Zafra 16-17 se visitaron seis ingenios azucareros para caracterizar la forma de preparación de semilla (slurry) de cristalización, comparar las distintas prácticas y determinar cuáles son las mejores para generar un método óptimo que asegure la calidad en la semilla. Se analizaron las variables en este proceso: tipo de molino, tipo de azúcar, tipo de alcohol, tamizado de azúcar, cantidad de azúcar y alcohol agregados al molino, tiempo de molienda, etc. Se efectuó un análisis cristalográfico a la semilla en los ingenios, esto permitió evaluar el impacto en la calidad que tiene cada una de las variables mencionadas. Entre otras cosas, se determinó que el mejor desempeño lo tiene el molino de bolas horizontal, ya que permite un tamaño de cristal entre 5 y 10 µm, un coeficiente de variación (CV) menor a 31% y una morfología uniforme de los cristales. Un análisis de la " maduración " demostró que la misma representa un 4% de disminución del CV y además mejora la curva de distribución de tamaños. ABSTRACT Six sugar mills were visited during the Harvest of 16-17 to characterize the seed (slurry) preparation method used in crystallization, to compare the different practices and to determine which are the best ones to generate an optimum method that assures the quality in seed. The variables in this process were analyzed: type of grinding mill, type of sugar and alcohol, sugar sifting, amount of sugar and alcohol added to the grinding mill, milling time, etc. A crystallographic analysis on seed was performed in the mills, which allowed to evaluate the impact on the quality of each of the mentioned variables. Among other things, it was determined that the horizontal ball mill has the best performance, because it allows a crystal size between 5 and 10 µm, a size spread (CV) less than 31% and a uniform morphology of the crystals. An analysis of the "maturation" showed that it represents a 4% decrease in CV and also improves the size distribution curve. ANTECEDENTES En la industria azucarera se utilizan varios métodos para preparar semilla. Por ejemplo, se tiene la formación por medio de rompimiento mecánico de azúcar suspendida en alcohol dentro de un molino de bolas, también se puede obtener por la mezcla de azúcar pulverizado tipo fondant con alcohol y un tercer método para la preparación implica utilizar medios fisicoquímicos, en el cual la semilla se forma por el enfriamiento rápido de una solución sobresaturada de azúcar al verterle un solvente en donde el azúcar es insoluble y se encuentra a menor temperatura.
