U.S. Sugar Supplies RiseWASHINGTON - Jul 9/10 - SNS -- Projected U.S. sugar supply for fiscal year 2010-11 is increased 188,000 short tons, raw value, from last month, due to higher beginning stocks and production, according to the latest forecast from the USDA's World Agricultural Outlook Board. Beet sugar production is increased 80,000 tons while cane sugar production is decreased 10,000 tons, reflecting area for harvest in the June 30 Acreage report. Sugar use is unchanged. For 2009-10, U.S. production is decreased 42,000 tons, mainly due to smaller-than-expected beet sugar production in May. Sugar imports under the tariff rate quota are increased 270,000 tons based on the July 6 announcement, while imports from Mexico are decreased 110,000 tons. With no change in use, ending stocks are increased 118,000 tons. For Mexico, 2009-10 production is increased to reflect output expected in the final few weeks of the harvest, imports and exports are decreased, and domestic use and ending stocks are unchanged.
