Why Is Sugar a Popular Agricultural Commodity?

Sugar is nothing but soluble carbohydrates that are widely used in food as a sweetening agent. It is derived from sugar beet or sugarcane and is converted into glucose when consumed. This staple commodity is found everywhere, and people use it as an ingredient in a vast range of foods and beverages. Sugar provides instant energy to the body, and thus its everyday consumption and wider use in a number of industries are reasons why sugar buyers consistently look for exporters to fulfill the market demand.



Which Sugar Grades and Types Are In Demand for Global Trade?

It may amaze you to learn that sugar's moisture-absorbing abilities lend its healing properties that help prevent bacterial growth in wounds. This naturally white agricultural product is graded on the basis of factors like grain size and color. The numbers 30 and 31 denote the color series, while L (large), M (medium), and S (small) represent sizes. These grades also tell a lot about the quality of sugar; for example, 31 is considered to be the best color and quality of sugar. In addition, sugar is classified in a number of ways, and though there are several types, below given are the most in demand.


  • Sugar ICUMSA 45: Highly refined and considered of the highest purity.
     
  • Raw Sugar (ICUMSA 600-1200): Less refined and used in bulk food processing.

  • Beet Sugar:  Derived from sugar beets.

  • Coconut Sugar: Less processed and derived from the coconut palm.


Apart from the most demanded sugar types mentioned above, people often look for sugar processing plants for trade purposes.


A Global Outlook: Significance of Sugar In the Trade Market

The consumption of sugar is universal, and 108 countries produce this commodity. This is the reason why the global sugar market greatly impacts economies worldwide. Moreover, the export and import of sugar help balance the global sugar supply, influencing both availability and prices in many countries. 

The growing demand for sugar in industries like food and pharmaceuticals is largely affecting the trade business. Countries like India and China are some of the biggest consumers of this product due to the wide industrial and tabletop usage of sugar. The global sugar market size reached $66.39 billion in 2023, as per a report by Grand View Research. Here are the top three sugar importers and exporters (2023-24).

India’s Sugar Export Restrictions & Statewise Quota (2024-25): In order to support local suppliers and control rising prices, the Indian government banned sugar exports in October 2023. This move came after lower sugarcane output due to erratic monsoons and shifting weather patterns. Thus, India (usually one of the major sugar exporters) stopped its overseas shipments during the 2023-24 season. However, the ban did not apply to exports made under specific quota agreements with the European Union and the United States, through the CXL and TRQ programs. 

Here's the overview of the state-wise sugar export quotas that the Indian government introduced for better planning and management of resources.
