  • Sugar prices jump as India's weak monsoon and El Niño worries hit supply
    June 29, 2026, 1:29 PM EDT. Sugar prices rallied Friday, with New York sugar hitting its highest in two weeks and London sugar at a 2.75-month peak. Traders pointed to India's 42% below-normal monsoon rainfall as a main driver, putting pressure on sugarcane crops. India's Earth Science Ministry says it's the weakest monsoon in 11 years for the world's No. 2 sugar producer. Brazil's sugar output is also under pressure, as more cane goes to ethanol and Unica reported a 2% output drop through May. A confirmed El Niño weather pattern is raising more supply worries, with the U.S. NOAA citing a 67% chance of a strong "Super El Niño" this year, which could mean less rain for Brazil, India, and Thailand. All this keeps sugar prices up.
