This data product contains summary statistics on sugar, sugarbeets, sugarcane, corn sweeteners (dextrose, glucose, and high-fructose corn syrup), and honey. The majority of the data are compiled from the following USDA agencies: Agricultural Marketing Service, Farm Service Agency, Foreign Agricultural Service, National Agricultural Statistic Service, and Office of the Chief Economist. Data are monthly, quarterly, and/or annually, depending upon the data series. Most data are shown in fiscal years (October 1 to September 30); others are in calendar years (January 1 to December 31). These data can be used to monitor and analyze U.S. sweetener policy and events that affect the domestic, Mexican, and other international sweetener markets.
For further information on how these data are compiled see the Documentation page.
