  • Sugar Prices Surge Driven by Gasoline and Ethanol Demand
    April 30, 2026, 1:03 AM EDT. Sugar prices rose sharply, with New York sugar hitting a three-week high and London sugar a four-week peak. The surge follows a jump in gasoline prices to a 3.75-year high, which boosts ethanol prices and prompts Brazilian sugar mills to favor ethanol over sugar production, tightening sugar supplies. Brazil's crop forecasts show a slight decline in sugar output but increased ethanol production, while global surplus estimates are being revised down, signaling tightening markets. This shift comes after sugar prices fell to a 5.5-year low in April amid oversupply concerns. India's stable export policy and robust crushing rates in Brazil add further nuance to the market dynamics.
