PHILIPPINE raw sugar production will likely remain flat in marketing year (MY) 2025-2026 at 2.09 million metric tons (MMT), according to the US Department of Agriculture (USDA).

In a report, the USDA said sugar output during the MY, which runs between September 2025 and August 2026, is expected to match production levels recorded in the previous MY. The forecast represents a 12.7% increase from the USDA’s May estimate of 1.85 MMT.

The USDA also upgraded its production total for MY 2024–2025, raising it to 2.09 MMT .

Philippine production in MY 2024-2025 benefited from higher-yielding crop varieties, better soil health, and improved irrigation,” the USDA said.

Global production for the current MY is estimated to increase 4.58% to 189.26 MMT.

Meanwhile, human consumption of sugar in the Philippines is projected to rise 3.29% from the previous MY to 2.20 MMT.

Global human consumption is expected to increase 1.33% to 178.11 MMT.

The USDA also projected Philippine sugar end-of-year stocks to rise 9.7% to 1.05 MMT by the end of the current MY.

Global ending stocks are expected to hit 44.53 MMT by the end of the current MY, up 5.05%. — Vonn Andrei E. Villamiel

The post CME Group to launch Solana and XRP futures options in October appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. CME Group is preparing to launch options on SOL and XRP futures next month, giving traders new ways to manage exposure to the two assets. The contracts are set to go live on October 13, pending regulatory approval, and will come in both standard and micro sizes with expiries offered daily, monthly and quarterly. The new listings mark a major step for CME, which first brought bitcoin futures to market in 2017 and added ether contracts in 2021. Solana and XRP futures have quickly gained traction since their debut earlier this year. CME says more than 540,000 Solana contracts (worth about $22.3 billion), and 370,000 XRP contracts (worth $16.2 billion), have already been traded. Both products hit record trading activity and open interest in August. Market makers including Cumberland and FalconX plan to support the new contracts, arguing that institutional investors want hedging tools beyond bitcoin and ether. CME’s move also highlights the growing demand for regulated ways to access a broader set of digital assets. The launch, which still needs the green light from regulators, follows the end of XRP’s years-long legal fight with the US Securities and Exchange Commission. A federal court ruling in 2023 found that institutional sales of XRP violated securities laws, but programmatic exchange sales did not. The case officially closed in August 2025 after Ripple agreed to pay a $125 million fine, removing one of the biggest uncertainties hanging over the token. This is a developing story.
