  • Global Sugar Surpluses Keep Prices Under Pressure Ahead of 2026/27 Crop
    February 4, 2026, 4:26 PM EST. March sugar futures in New York and London dropped over 1% on Wednesday, pressured by expectations of ongoing global sugar surpluses. Analysts from Czarnikow predict a 3.4 million metric ton (MMT) surplus in 2026/27 after an 8.3 MMT surplus in 2025/26. Brazil's sugar production climbed 0.9% in 2025/26, while India's output jumped 22% year-on-year, boosting export prospects amid lowered domestic ethanol sugar usage. Indian government may allow more sugar exports, adding downward pressure on prices. Brazil's 2025/26 sugar output was revised higher to 45 MMT, but 2026/27 projections show a 3.91% decline, offering limited price support. The persistent supply overhang from key producers keeps sugar prices subdued despite some signs of tightening in later years.
