Modestly Smaller Sugar Supply

WASHINGTON - Feb 10/09 - SNS -- Available supplies of sugar will be slightly lower than thought last month, according to the latest supply and demand outlooks from the USDA's World Agricultural Outlook Board.

Projected 2008-09 U.S. sugar supply is decreased 46,000 short tons, raw value, from last month, due to reduced production more than offsetting increased imports and revised higher beginning stocks.

Reduced forecast sugarcane production in Florida lowers cane sugar production 85,000 tons while information from mills in Louisiana and Texas provides a partial offset. Imports are increased 35,000 tons, due to higher imports from Mexico and Peru more than offsetting lower imports from Canada. Exports are reduced 40,000 tons based on the slow pace to date. Sugar use is unchanged.
