[Title] => Sugar farmers warn vs allowing imports by beverage companies
[Summary] => Local sugar farmers have warned against allowing beverage companies from importing sugar at this time, saying this would be disastrous to the sugar industry.
In a letter to Trade Secretary Peter Favila, the Confederation of Sugar Producers Associations (Confed) said allowing beverage firms to import sugar would flood the market and cause sugar prices to plunge.
The country’s biggest group of sugar farmers was reacting to Favila’s earlier statement that he would support a proposal from Alfredo Yao, chairman of Zesto Corp., to import sugar directly.

[Title] => Sugar prices on the rise
[Summary] => Sugar prices have greatly improved following the shipment of Philipine sugar to the world market.
Millgate prices have increased from around P680 to P700 per bag in November when the D sugar was still in the country to P760 to P780 per bag this week. Industry officials expect prices to improve further in the next few weeks. About 100,000 bags of sugar have been shipped to the world market while another 120,000 bags or more are expected to be exported soon.
