JAKARTA, Oct 19 (Reuters) - Indonesia's sugar output from January to the end of September 2010 reached 1.67 million tonnes Bambang Priyono, secretary of the Indonesian Sugar Council (DGI) said on Tuesday.
'The DGI recorded realised sugar production until the end of September this year at 1.67 million tonnes,' Priyono told Reuters.
The government body expected full year sugar output will be at 2.28 million tonnes, lower than original government target this year of 2.5 million tonnes due to prolonged rains, he added.
