Atbara — The continuing shortage of fuel and repeated power cuts have forced cement factories in Sudan's River Nile state to reduce their production by more than half. The Atbara Cement Plant has reduced its production from 120,000 tons per month to 60,000 tons, an employee told Radio Dabanga on Friday.
He said that the cement production in El Salam Factory dropped from 60,000 tons to 20,000 tons, El Takamol Factory from 80,000 tons to 32,000 tons, the North Factory from 120,000 tons to 50,000 tons, and the Berber Factory from 70,000 to 30,000 tons.
