For marketing year October 2024/September 2025 (MY 2024/25), Post forecasts overall sugar production in the Dominican Republic (DR) to increase to 520,000 metric tons (MT) due to better-than-expected rainfall patterns. During MY 2023/24, total sugar production increased slightly by 2 percent to 494,791 MT relative to last marketing year due to marginally improved rainfall conditions. For MY 2024/25, Post forecasts exports of raw cane sugar at 190,000 MT, which will satisfy the country’s fiscal year 2025 (FY 2025) tariff-rate quota with the United States. During MY 2024/25, Post forecasts imports lower at 70,000 MT, as the country is expected to boost local supply to meet rising domestic consumption.
