  • Sugar Prices Rise on Brazil's Ethanol Shift and Global Output Cuts
    May 20, 2026, 8:05 AM EDT. Sugar prices surged with July NY world sugar up 2.51% and August London white sugar up 2.06%, driven by Brazil's new fuel subsidies supporting ethanol prices. This may encourage Brazilian sugar mills to prioritize ethanol production over sugar manufacturing. The International Sugar Organization (ISO) projects a 2026/27 global sugar production decline of 1.15% to 180 million metric tonnes (MMT), amid El Niño risks to crops in India and Thailand. India's 4-month sugar export ban and varied production forecasts add to bullish sentiment. Brazil's sugar output is expected to shrink between 0.5%-11.9% depending on the source, reflecting a strategic shift to ethanol amid rising gasoline prices and supply concerns linked to the Strait of Hormuz closure.
