Brazil’s 2025-26 sugarcane production is forecast at 666.4 million tons, a 1.6% drop from the last cycle due to poor weather, Conab projects. Despite a 2.4% growth in the national harvested area, productivity suffered, particularly in the Center-South. Despite this, the country’s harvested area is predicted to rise by 2.4% to 8.97 million hectares. Mato Grosso do Sul comes out with a 6.3% increase in production, totaling 52.38 million tons, driven by increased planted area and a small improvement in productivity. Nationally, sugar production is expected to rise 2% to 45 million tons, the second biggest volume in history, while ethanol production is likely to dip 2.8% to 36.2 billion liters, with a 9.5% decrease in sugarcane production and a 22.6% increase in corn ethanol.
