  • Sugar Prices Rally on Higher Gasoline and Ethanol Demand, Brazil Output Declines
    April 30, 2026, 2:25 AM EDT. Sugar prices surged on Wednesday with May NY sugar up 4.04% to a three-week high and August London sugar climbing 2.75% to its highest in four weeks. The rise follows a sharp increase in gasoline prices, which supports ethanol production and prompts Brazilian mills to divert cane from sugar to ethanol, limiting sugar supply. Brazil's 2026/27 sugar output is forecast down by 0.5-3%, while ethanol production is expected to rise over 7%. Global sugar surplus estimates have also been trimmed by analysts, adding further support. Despite previous pressure on sugar prices due to weak demand and record May contract deliveries, tighter supply outlooks and stronger energy markets are underpinning the recent price rebound.
