Group 1: Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the report Group 2: Core View of the Report - Due to strengthened import control on syrups and premixes, Zhengzhou sugar prices rebounded recently, but the external market remained weak. Since August this year, the cumulative sugar production in the central - southern region of Brazil has exceeded last year due to a significant increase in the proportion of sugarcane for sugar production, leading to a continuous decline in raw sugar prices. With an expected increase in production in the northern hemisphere's major producing countries in the 2025/26 new crushing season, the upward space for raw sugar is limited, and the import profit has reached a five - year high. It is recommended to wait for the weakening of the rebound strength and then look for opportunities to short [3]. Group 3: Summary According to Related Contents Syrup and Premix Import Situation - The number of enterprises whose imports of Thai syrups and premixes were suspended by the customs increased from 35 to 44, and the effective ones were left with 16. The scope of suspended imports expanded from tariff number 170290 to 2106906. In September 2025, the total import volume of syrups and white sugar premixes (including tariff numbers 170290 and 2106906) was 15.14 tons, a year - on - year decrease of 13.52 tons. From January to September 2025, the total import volume was 88.52 tons, a year - on - year decrease of 85.24 tons. In the 2024/25 crushing season, the total import volume was 152.44 tons, a year - on - year decrease of 62.96 tons. Stricter supervision on tariff number 2106906 is expected to further reduce future imports and boost Zhengzhou sugar prices [5]. Import Cost and Profit - Based on the March contract price of raw sugar, on October 30, the estimated out - of - quota import cost from Brazil was 5025 yuan/ton, and the in - quota import cost was 4049 yuan/ton. For the January contract of Zhengzhou sugar, the in - quota import profit was 1423 yuan/ton, and the out - of - quota import profit was 447 yuan/ton. For the spot, the current import - processed sugar price was about 6050 yuan/ton, and the out - of - quota spot import profit reached 905 yuan/ton, a five - year high, indicating great import pressure next year. With an expected increase in domestic production in the new crushing season, the supply pressure will still increase [6]. Brazilian Sugar Production - Datagro predicted that the sugar production in the central - southern region of Brazil in the 2025/26 crushing season would reach 4142 tons, a 3.1% increase from the previous season. For the 2026/27 crushing season, the predicted sugar production was 4230 tons, an increase of 88 tons from the current season. In the first half of October, the sugarcane crushing volume in the central - southern region of Brazil was 3403.7 tons, a year - on - year increase of 0.3%. The sugar production was 248.4 tons, a year - on - year increase of 1.25%. As of the first half of October in the 2025/26 crushing season, the cumulative sugar production was 3601.6 tons, a year - on - year increase of 0.89% [12][13]. Northern Hemisphere Sugar Production Forecast - The ISMA estimated that India's total sugar production in the 2025/26 crushing season would increase by 18% to about 3490 tons. The OSCB estimated that Thailand's sugar production in the 2025/26 crushing season would be 1005 tons, basically the same as the previous season. With an expected increase in production in major northern - hemisphere sugar - producing countries, the upward space for raw sugar is limited [14].
