BEIJING – China’s sugar output from October 2022 to September 2023 is expected to reach 9 million tons, according to a Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs report.

The projected output was down 330,000 tons from the previous forecast made last month, according to the report released by Chinese Agricultural Supply and Demand Estimates, under the ministry’s Chinese Agriculture Outlook Committee.

The monthly analysis report attributed the revision to lower sugarcane output in South China’s Guangxi Zhuang autonomous region, the country’s major sugar manufacturing base.

It cautioned about an impact on the domestic sugar market from sugar production and the export situation on the international market.
