Sugar Price

Produced from sugarcane (mainly Brazil, India, Thailand) and sugar beet (mainly the EU). Brazil's ethanol industry uses the same cane crop, so sugar prices are tied to Brazilian ethanol and fuel economics — cane can be diverted toward sugar or ethanol depending on which is more profitable at the time.

Latest World price (2025-12): -24% vs. the 5-year average, -13% vs. the 10-year average, -26% vs. a year ago.

Price Chart

"World" is the global benchmark price (World Bank Pink Sheet, monthly since 1960, where available). EU country options are Eurostat producer prices (annual); Canadian province options are Statistics Canada producer prices (monthly); US state options are USDA AMS daily cash grain bids (individual elevators/trade locations averaged per state per day), "United States" alone is USDA NASS's monthly national figure. "EU-27 (average)", "Canada (average)" and "US daily average" are simple, unweighted means across whichever member states/provinces/US states reported a price that period, computed by agri.markets — none of these sources publishes an official aggregate for this data, so these are not production-weighted figures. Currency conversion uses monthly ECB reference rates since 1999 (some currencies joined later) — for comparison, not precise historical FX accounting.
