1 Sugar Cane and Sugar Beets Shep Rogers

2 Global Sugar Production Cane Sugar Accounts for about 80% of total sugar production. Brazil is the global leader in cane sugar production at over 40% of global output. USA accounts for ~1.8% of total cane sugar output. Major US states producing sugar cane: FL, HI, LA, and TX. Beet Sugar Accounts for about 20% of total sugar production. Russia is the global leader in beet sugar production with ~15.7% of global output. USA accounts for ~ 12.7% of total beet sugar output. Major US states producing sugar beets: CA, MT, CO, NE, ID, ND, MI, OR, MN, and WY.

3 Sugar Cane Production Requires a tropical climate with an avg. annual rainfall of ~24. Can grow in a variety of different soils; requires plentiful rain/irrigation and minimal chance for frost. Grows for months before harvest, which usually falls between June and December. Can be as tall as 10 ft. at harvest.

5 Sugar Beet Production Sugar beets are primarily grown in the temperate zones of the world. Can also grow in a variety of different soil types; Very water intensive crop. Can be grown in hot humid climates, but leads to problems with insects, disease, and low quality. Depending on climate, planting and harvesting occur in both the spring and fall. (Southern CA plants in autumn and harvests in spring; MN is the opposite)

7 Sugar high-energy and all natural sweetener. Ethanol an affordable and renewable transportation fuel. Bioelectricity leftover sugarcane biomass can be burned and converted into electricity. Bioplastics beverage containers, food packaging and other consumer products made with sugarcane using less or no oil compared to standard plastic.

8 US Sugar Program These policies have traditionally established a minimum domestic wholesale sugar price and insulated US prices from world sugar price changes. This program supports sugar prices through a combination of TRQ s and nonrecourse CCC loans. CCC loan rates essentially set a price floor for sugar and keep domestic producers from exporting product.

9 US Sugar Program Explained Tariff Rate Quotas for US sugar imports establish a relatively low in-quota tariff of cents/lb. of raw sugar for amounts that do not exceed our country s import allotment. All imports in excess of the predetermined quota are charged an over-quota tariff of cents/lb. Import allotment is set by the US Secretary of Agriculture. US has an obligation under its WTO commitments to import million tons of raw sugar annually. American consumers and US sugar-using businesses, have been forced to pay more than twice the world sugar price since 1982; (29.1 cents/lb. for domestic vs cents/lb. for world). CCC (Commodity Credit Corporation) loans are made to sugar processors as opposed to producers, because sugar must be refined to some level before being sold. A loan becomes nonrecourse if the domestic price for sugar falls below the CCC loan rate, refined sugar from the processor that is pledged as collateral can be used to repay the loan, in lieu of cash payment. If the domestic price is above the loan rate, processors sell sugar in the domestic market, and the marketing loan is repaid along with accumulated interest. This type of loan is a typical recourse loan.
