What type of climate is required for the production of sugarcane?

Sugarcane thrives in a tropical climate characterized by warm temperatures, abundant sunlight, and ample rainfall. Ideal conditions include temperatures between 20°C to 32°C (68°F to 90°F) and a growing season with at least 1,500 mm (59 inches) of rainfall. Well-drained, fertile soils also contribute to optimal growth, making regions with these climatic conditions suitable for sugarcane cultivation.
