  • Sugar Prices Fall as USDA Projects 2026/27 Sugar Surplus in India
    May 1, 2026, 12:22 PM EDT. Sugar prices declined on Thursday, with May New York sugar down 0.68% and August London white sugar falling 1.33%. The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) forecasted a 2.5 million metric tons surplus of sugar in India for 2026/27, marking the first surplus in two years in the world's second-largest sugar producer. Early gains in sugar prices were reversed despite rising gasoline prices, which typically support sugar through increased ethanol production from cane. Brazilian mills are shifting more cane to ethanol, reducing sugar output by nearly 12% year-on-year in early April. Global sugar prices have been pressured by expectations of ample supplies and weak demand, highlighted by record May contract deliveries in London. India's decision not to restrict sugar exports and downward revisions to global sugar surplus estimates are adding complexity amid concerns over production shifts.
