Before 1962 Tunisia depended completely on foreign markets for its needs in sugar. The installation in the north-western region of two transformation units had two objectives; the first was to produce part of the sugar consumed locally, the second was to introduce sugar beet crop in the rotation plans in the new irrigated perimeters. The present paper use the policy analysis matrix PAM to show that Tunisia has not comparative advantage in sugar production and that to maintain current level of production it is necessary, the government subsidizes farmers and processors and assumes a social loss because of the misallocation of resources.
