Sugar & HFCS Market Intelligence

Sugar & HFCS Market Description

The global HFCS production is expected to grow at a constant pace till 2020, owing to increasing demand from beverage industries in developing economies. One MT of cane/beet yields 265 pounds of sugar and 2.3 gallons of ethanol. The production of sugar is driven by the price realization of ethanol and its application across various industrial segments. The global sugar production is expected to increase by 8 percent and reach a capacity of 191 MMT in the near future. This is due to the increased supply in sugar-producing countries like Thailand, EU, and India owing to an expansion of cultivation area and good weather conditions.

HFCS prices in most countries are determined by the global corn supply and sugar prices. In addition to this, excess sugar production in the EU is further driving the cost towards a downwards curve. In addition to this, the diversion of the Brazilian sugarcane market towards ethanol and sugar crushing also acts as a driver for the global sugar supply. The report further provides a comprehensive analysis of sugar manufacturers, suppliers, cost and pricing, and industry trends of the market. The report also covers a detailed analysis of the suppliers, cost and price, and industry trends of the HFCS market.

Sugar - Value Chain Analysis

One MT of cane/beet will yield 265 pounds of sugar and 2.3 gallons of ethanol. Price realization from ethanol drives the production of sugar. In Brazil, at present, the price of sugar is 1.15 times higher than the price of ethanol, which is driving the sugar production in the country
The leftovers from sugar production, like molasses and sugar beet pulp, can be used for other purposes, such as animal feed, paper, yeast, and amino acid production, in culture media for the biotechnological production of alcohol, citric acid, nutritional yeast, and as a soil conditioner
Press Mud is used in the biofertilizer industry, and bagasse goes into paper manufacturing

Global Supply–Demand Analysis

The global sugar production in 2017-2018 is expected to increase by 58percent from the previous year to 191 MMT, due to increase in sugar production in Thailand, the EU, and India, owing to good weather condition, expansion of cultivation area and an increase in sugarcane production. Global consumption is growing at a CAGR of 1.2 percent from 2012 to 2017
The global sugar supply in 2017-2018 is expected to reach 287 MMT, with consumption reaching 174 MMT
A 9.5 percent increase global ending stock are forecasted in 2017/2018 from 2013 to 2014, due to high an increase in production and less than anticipitated increase in consumption
Brazil, India, and Thailand are the major sugar producing countries in the world
Increase in global sugar production in 2017/2018 can be witnessed compared to the previous year, owing to the rise in the EU sugar production after quota expiry

Global Sugarcane and Sugar Beet Production

The EU sugar beet production is expected to increase in 2017/2018 compared to the previous year, owing to the removal of the sugar production regime in the EU in 2017. Similarly, Brazil, Thailand, and Indian cane production is expected to increase due to good monsoon
Sugar is produced either from sugar beet or sugarcane. Depending upon the suitability of countries, either beet or cane or both are grown to produce sugar
The EU occupies 43 percent of the share in the total beet production, and Russia is the second largest beet producing region
On an average, France and Germany are the leading sugar beet producers in the world, producing 40.02 MMT and 259 MMT, respectively
Brazil and India are the top cane producers, contributing to 29 percent and 17 percent in the total cane production, respectively
China and the US produce both sugarcane and sugar beet
