SUGAR

* Dealers said the market had also become technically overbought after a strong rise in prices during the last few days linked to the protests.
* They said the harvest in Centre-South Brazil now appeared to be back in full flow while mills were also beginning to resume operations.
* The weakness of Brazil's real currency on Friday also threatened to trigger a pick-up in producer selling, improving dollar-denominated prices in local currency terms.

COFFEE
* July arabica coffee fell 1.20 cents, or 1 percent, to $1.2250 per lb after hitting $1.2495, the highest for the front month since Jan. 30.
* The weak Brazilian real and improved flow of supplies in the world's top producer also weighed on prices.
* The market's rise has been driven partly the truck drivers' protests in Brazil this week, which is expected to reduce the country's May coffee exports by 900,000 60-kg bags.
