Guangxi's 2025/26 Crushing Season Sugar Production and Sales Update: Cumulative Sales Reach 5.028 Million Tons by End of June, Sales Ratio at 65.32%

According to the latest data, as of June 30th in the 2025/26 crushing season, Guangxi province, a crucial sugar-producing region in China, has demonstrated significant capacity in sugarcane crushing and sugar production. The cumulative sugarcane crushed for this season reached 60.9282 million tons, marking a substantial increase of 12.3328 million tons compared to the same period last year. This surge in raw material processing led to a rise in sugar output, with total mixed sugar production reaching 7.6974 million tons, an increase of 1.2324 million tons year-on-year. Despite the growth in production volume, the sugar yield rate slightly decreased to 12.63%, down by 0.67 percentage points from the previous year. Regarding market sales, by the end of June, Guangxi's cumulative sugar sales amounted to 5.028 million tons, which is a decrease of 112,600 tons compared to the same period last year. Consequently, the sales ratio fell to 65.32%, a year-on-year decline of 14.19 percentage points, indicating that market absorption has not fully kept pace with the increase in production. Notably, sales performance for June alone was relatively positive, with monthly sales reaching 537,800 tons, an increase of 42,500 tons year-on-year. However, despite the improved sales in June, industrial inventory continues to face considerable pressure. By the end of the month, inventory levels stood at 2.6694 million tons, a significant year-on-year increase of 1.3450 million tons, suggesting that further adjustments are needed to balance market supply and demand.
