The U.S. Department of Agriculture today announced updates to fiscal year (FY) 2026 domestic sugar marketing allotments and company allocations for both cane sugar and beet sugar. As required under the Agricultural Adjustment Act of 1938, USDA periodically reassigns sugar marketing allotments to ensure available domestic sugar can be efficiently marketed for food use in the United States.
Cane Sugar Reassignment
Based on the evaluation of each sugarcane state’s and processor’s ability to market their full allotments, USDA is transferring 315,464 short tons, raw value, of Florida’s FY 2026 cane sugar allotment to Louisiana. This action reallocates marketing authority from Florida sugarcane processors with surplus allocation to Louisiana processors with allocation shortfalls.
