Sugar prices on Friday extended this week’s sell-off, with NY sugar falling to a 3-month low and London sugar falling to a 2-month low. Increased sugar production in Brazil alleviated supply concerns and sparked fund selling of sugar. On Wednesday, Conab raised its 2023/24 Brazil sugar production estimate by +15% to 46.9 MMT from an August estimate of 40.9 MMT.
