According to the internet:

"The drastic underperformance of the 2008/09 Indian harvest alongside those in several other northern hemisphere locations has laid the way for a global (sugar) deficit of historic proportion, thus offering a seemingly irrefutable fundamental case for strong price performance," according to Barclays Capital analyst Nicholas Snowdon.

The site I pulled that quote from is a news aggregator/content farm. SO who knows how true. Highlighting, I suppose, the need for trusted brands for data.

I added some oil price data to this visualization. As you can see the lines for everything except sugar seem to move more or less with the oil. It would be interesting to do a little regression on this and see how close the actual correlation is.
