Tighter U.S. Sugar OutlookWASHINGTON - Mar 11/08 - SNS -- The sugar outlook for the United States is tighter than thought, with output cut from the February's supply and demand forecasts from the USDA's World Agricultural Outlook Board.

Production is based on processors' projections compiled by the Farm Service Agency. Demand is unchanged. In today's crop report, the USDA pegged sugarcane outputy at 30.8 million tons, of which 29.1 million tons are for sugar and 1.74 million tons are for seed.
