Colombia: Sugar Annual

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)   |   CO2025-0007
In market year (MY) 2025/2026, FAS Bogota (Post) forecasts Colombia’s sugar production to recover to 2.3 million metric tons (MMT) due to improved weather conditions from the weakening of the La Niña phenomenon and expected normal weather patterns, positively impacting sugarcane yields and sucrose content. This recovery follows recent underperformance, especially in MY 2023/2024 when heavy rainfall lowered yields. Colombia’s economy is projected to grow by over 2.5 percent in 2025 through 2026, which should support modest improvements in sugar consumption despite the Colombian government’s continuing consumer tax on sugar products. Exports are expected to slightly increase owing to higher production, with mostly flat refined sugar imports.
