Global sugar production is expected to fall by 2.8% to 175.1m tons by 2019/20, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) said on Thursday.
Global sugar consumption is expected to fall 1.4% to 177.5m tons in the period, the FAO added.
This will mean a global deficit of about 2.4m tons.
FAO’s sugar price index averaged 178.3 points in October, up 5.8% from September.
