Hey everyone, welcome to another episode of Daily Sugar Price Tracker with Vanessa Clark. I'm your host Vanessa, and today we're diving into the freshest sugar market updates as of April 1st, keeping you in the know on prices, trends, and what it all means for traders and everyday folks watching this sweet commodity.
Let's start with the numbers you care about most. In international futures, New York Sugar No. 11 front month is trading at 15.13 cents per pound, while London White Sugar No. 5 is at $441.50 per ton, according to Vizzie's daily update and Czapp commentary. Prices dipped recently, hitting two-week lows around 15.2 cents per pound, pressured by softer crude oil prices that make ethanol less appealing, freeing up more cane for sugar production. Barchart reports May New York Sugar No. 11 closed down 1.48 percent amid this crude weakness.
Domestically in India, prices held steady at high levels. Muzaffarnagar M-grade sugar is at 4,000 to 4,120 rupees per quintal, Kolhapur S-grade at 3,710 to 3,750 rupees, with ex-mill rates firm across Maharashtra, Karnataka, and Uttar Pradesh. ChiniMandi notes healthy buying interest despite tight stocks.
On the news front, Brazil's Center-South sugar output is up 0.7 percent year-on-year to 40.25 million tons, with more cane going to sugar at 50.61 percent share, per Unica. Global surplus forecasts are piling up too—Czarnikow sees 184.5 million tons produced this season, while India's ISMA eyes 29.3 million tons. In Maharashtra, cane arrears and FRP-MSP gaps are squeezing mills, and new laws aim to shield workers from middlemen.
What does this mean for you? With ample supply from Brazil and India, prices may stay range-bound or ease further unless oil rebounds or weather hits crops. Keep an eye on crude and geopolitics—they're swinging the market.
That's your Daily Sugar Price Tracker wrap-up. Thanks for tuning in, friends—subscribe, share, and catch you next time for more sweet insights!
