An enormous lift in duties by the world's number one sugar importer would appear to be a devastating blow for top notch producers, including Brazil and Thailand.
Nevertheless, it would provide a much-required reprieve to millions of small farmers as well as state-owned producers, including Cofco Tunhe Co and Nanning Sugar Industry, who argue cheap imports have generated billions of dollars of losses and provoked output cuts.
