        • 2022, Tam Ysmael, “Pinagtubuang tubuhan: Industriya ng asukal sa Pilipinas”, in Pinoy Weekly‎[2], archived from the original on 27 August 2026:
          Sa kalakalan, ipinailalim ng SRA ang produktong asukal sa sistemang quedan (resibo sa bodega na ginagamit sa bentahan) na nagmamarka sa bodega ng “A” para pang-export sa US, “B” para sa lokal na pamilihan, “C” para sa reserba, at “D” para sa world export. Ang asukal na naka-imbak para sa A na karaniwang mas mura ay naipupuslit sa B na mas mataas ang presyo at, sa gayon, lumilikha pa ng patong na tubo para sa trader.
