May NY world sugar #11 (SBK24) on Monday closed up +0.10 (+0.46%), and May London ICE white sugar #5 (SWK24) closed up +2.50 (+0.39%).
Sugar prices on Monday posted moderate gains as US sugar producers called for a reduction in sugar imports from Mexico. The American Sugar Coalition wants the government to lower the amount of sugar Mexico can send to the US by 44%, which would likely boost prices and require the US to purchase sugar from other countries, tapping already tight global sugar supplies.
