In the World Agricultural Demand and Supply Estimates (WASDE) released on January 12,
2011, projected U.S. sugar supply for fiscal year (FY) 2011 is decreased 88,000 short tons,
raw value (STRV) from last month. Cane sugar production in Florida is reduced 100,000
STRV to 1.6 million STRV, based on processor forecasts. In mid-December, the Florida
sugarcane-producing area experienced a severe freeze. According to processor reports, this
freeze resulted in widespread damage to existing sugarcane crops awaiting harvest and
recently planted sugarcane meant for harvest next year.
