Sugar prices Monday sold off to 5-1/2 month lows on improving global supplies. Last week, India’s food ministry directed local sugar mills to stop using sugar cane juice and syrup to produce ethanol in the 2023/24 supply year to boost sugar reserves. Green Pool Commodity Specialists said this could add 2 MMT of sugar to India’s domestic supplies.
