  • Sugar Prices Recover as Brazilian Real Strengthens, Offsetting Global Surplus Concerns
    January 21, 2026, 2:35 PM EST. Sugar prices recovered from early losses amid a rally in the Brazilian real, which hit a 1.5-month high against the dollar, reducing export incentives for Brazil's producers.

Brazil's sugar output for 2025-26 is seen rising to 45 million metric tonnes (MMT), contributing to an expected global surplus, recently adjusted to 4.7 MMT by Covrig Analytics. India's sugar production jumped 22% year-on-year to 15.9 MMT, with exports encouraged due to lowered ethanol production. Despite this, a forecasted 3.9% decline in Brazil's 2026-27 output supports prices amid market uncertainty.
