Why is it masculine?

Jugo is masculine because it derives from the Latin "sucus," which was a masculine noun, and Spanish inherited this grammatical gender through regular sound changes during the language's evolution from Vulgar Latin. The word's gender was simply preserved as the language developed, following the same pattern as other masculine nouns descended from Latin masculine forms.
