India's Sugar Boom: Excess Production to Fuel Exports in 2025-26

India's sugar sector is poised to make a strong recovery with production anticipated to cross 29.5 million tonnes in the 2025-26 season due to better planting of cane and favorable weather conditions, ISMA said. ISMA anticipates two consecutive years of surplus production, which will provide sufficient supply to meet domestic consumption and ethanol production.

 

Key Highlights:

With favorable monsoon predictions and increased cane plantations, India is likely to resume sugar export, which may have a bearing on world sugar prices.
