Quebec — the source of 72% of the world’s maple syrup — is ramping up output to not only quench global appetites for the pancake topper, but also to replenish depleted stockpiles that are set aside to protect Canadian farmers against bad harvests in a volatile industry.
This year’s bounty of 239 million pounds was bolstered by an unusually early start to the season — though a changing climate doesn’t always help harvests.
