India will not increase its raw sugar export quota in the September season, contributing to a global supply shock that has driven raw sugar prices to their highest in a decade in over a decade. This is due to low reserves in Brazil, which is a major producer, and delayed supplies to Europe, Pakistan, Thailand, China, and Mexico. China has reduced its production estimate for 2022-2023 slightly to 9 million tons, and next year's crops are likely to be affected by a decline in sugarcane and beet acreage due to crop competition.
