Currently, many sugarcane mills face the challenge of obtaining sufficient raw material. This work analyzes and compares the land access forms to cane production in Brazil (big producer) and Peru (small producer). Data from Agricultural Censuses of the two countries are used. In the analyzed period, there was an increase in sugarcane production in both countries. It is observed that in Brazil, the tendency is for sugar mills to use land leasing or sharecropping contracts. In Peru, new sugarcane mills mainly use their own land. The access to land through agrarian contracts can be a factor of sustainability of the sugarcane agribusiness.
