Exploring the Sweet Story of Sugar: From Indian Roots to Global Impact
Sugarcane Statistics – India
Production Volume: India’s sugarcane production for the 2024/25 marketing year is forecasted at 416 million metric tons (MMT), cultivated over an area of 5.42 million hectares.
Leading Producing States: The top sugarcane-producing states include Uttar Pradesh, Maharashtra, and Karnataka, collectively accounting for a significant portion of the country’s output.
Ethanol Production: India is increasingly diverting sugarcane towards ethanol production to reduce oil imports. This shift is expected to reduce sugar availability for exports in the 2024/25 season.

Major Producers: Brazil remains the largest producer of sugarcane, followed closely by India. These two countries dominate global production, significantly influencing international sugar markets.
Market Dynamics: Fluctuations in production due to climatic factors in major producing countries like India can have notable impacts on global sugar prices and availability. For instance, India’s recent production challenges have contributed to tighter global supplies.
