COCOA
July London cocoa was down 10 pounds, or 0.6 percent, at 1,580 pounds a tonne at 1408 GMT after dipping to a low of 1,540 pounds on news that the uprising in Ivory Coast appeared to have ended.
Dealers said the market lost much of the ground gained during the mutiny which saw the July contract climb to a five-week high of 1,638 pounds on Monday.
They noted the pact with soldiers would allow this season's strong flow of supplies out of Ivory Coast to resume.
"They seem to have reached an agreement with the soldiers. Probably the worst is over," Commerzbank analyst Michaela Kuhl said, adding port arrivals remained well above last year's levels and a global surplus was widely expected this season.
A total of 47,970 tonnes of cocoa has been tendered against the ICE May London cocoa contract that expired on Monday, exchange data showed on Tuesday.
July New York cocoa was down $5, or 0.2 percent, at $2,036 a tonne.
Cocoa purchases declared to Ghana's industry regulator totalled 807,221 tonnes from the start of the 2016/17 season on Oct. 1 through May 4, up 18.2 percent on the season before, Cocobod chief executive Joseph Aidoo told Reuters on Tuesday.
SUGAR
July raw sugar rose 0.22 cents, or 1.4 percent, to 15.83 cents per lb.
Dealers said the market had derived spillover support from the strength of crude oil prices and a test of resistance around 16 cents per lb was possible in the near future.
They noted a breach of that level may prompt funds and other speculators to cover a net short position.
Weather in Centre-South Brazil remained a key focus with recent rains slowing the pace of crushing.
"Weather forecasts predict heavy rain until the weekend but dry weather for next week, which seems to be construed as neutral market-wise," said Tom Kujawa, co-ahead of the softs department at Sucden Financial.
