Sugar prices Thursday gave up an early gain and posted moderate losses on forecasts for abundant rain in Brazil's Center-South over the next week, partially alleviating drought concerns. Meteorologist Climatempo on Monday said that more significant rains are expected in Brazil's Center-South from Friday onwards, which will keep temperatures milder and improve soil moisture levels. The Center-South is Brazil's largest sugar-producing region.
