For the 2024/25 marketing year, international agricultural analysts CovrigAnalytics forecast a significant increase in China's sugar production by 6.5%, totaling 10.54 million tons. This growth is primarily due to the expansion of sugar cane cultivation in Guangxi province and the increase in sugar beet plantings in Inner Mongolia, alongside improved yields in these regions. The expansion in acreage is also attributed to the recovery of domestic sugar prices, lower corn prices, and the utilization of farmland previously used for eucalyptus trees. Additionally, China has raised the minimum purchase price of sugar cane and set the domestic sugar price, showing a positive outlook for the country's sugar production in the upcoming season.
