According to the monitoring of the commodity market analysis system of SunSirs, the average price of first grade white sugar in China was 5,646 RMB/ton at the beginning of last week, and 5,540 RMB/ton at the end of last week, with a price drop of 1.89%.
The domestic sugar production is expected to be high in the new crushing season, and sugar factories in major production areas such as Guangxi are about to concentrate on crushing. The market expects an increase in supply pressure, and downstream procurement enthusiasm is not high. Transactions are generally average in various regions, and weak demand has led to a lack of strong support for sugar prices. In October, China imported 750,000 tons of sugar, an increase of 213,200 tons year-on-year. From January to October 2025, China imported 3.9054 million tons of sugar, an increase of 473,700 tons or 13.8% year-on-year.
As of the second half of October in the 2025/26 crushing season, the cumulative crushing volume in the central and southern regions of Brazil was 556.029 million tons, a decrease of 11.157 million tons from the same period last year's 567.186 million tons, a year-on-year decrease of 1.97%. Some sugar mills in India started crushing earlier, resulting in better new sugar production and putting pressure on sugar prices.
The domestic crushing season has fully started, and new sugar has been launched one after another. It is expected that the price of white sugar will mainly fluctuate and weaken in the short term.
