From NASDA:

The U.S. Department of Commerce announced it initialed draft agreements with the Government of Mexico and Mexican sugar exporters that, if finally adopted, would suspend antidumping and countervailing duty investigations of imports of Mexican sugar. The investigations were initiated by Commerce in April 2014, after the U.S. sugar industry filed petitions alleging that it was injured by unfair pricing and government subsidies on Mexican sugar. Commerce published its affirmative preliminary findings.
