There are no grounds to expect a drop in sugar prices, says Peer Eftimov, head of the German seed-growing company Strube Rus. In 2021, the crops of sugar beet in Russia remained practically unchanged compared to the previous season, about 1 million hectares. In addition, late sowing can affect the quantity and quality of the crop; the root crops will not have time to gain the required sugar content. Furthermore, in many regions of the country, the past winter was abnormally warm, which became the reason for the activation of insect pests and pathogenic soil microorganisms.

Note from Sugar.Ru - in fact, the regulation of prices in the sugar market continues in “manual mode”.
