India's Sugar mills produce 39.7 lakh tonnes till Nov 30

Indian Sugar Mills Association (ISMA), a private industry body in its report states that Indian Sugar mills have produced 39.73 lakh tonnes of Sugar till November 30, 2018, which is almost similar to the Sugar production of 39.14 lakh tonnes during the same period of previous year.


According to records of ISMA, as compared to 450 Sugar factories which were crushing Sugarcane last year on November 30, 2017, 415 Sugar mills are crushing Sugarcane on November 30, 2018, this year.

In Maharashtra, 167 Sugar mills have started crushing operations and are running in full swing. As on 30 November 2018, these mills have produced 18.05 lakh tonne, 21% higher than the Sugar production of last year on the same date.

In Uttar Pradesh, 109 Sugar mills were crushing Sugarcane on November 30, 2018, and have produced 9.50 lakh tonne as compared to last year during the same period with an output of 13.11 lakh tonne. Sugar production this year is slow as compared to last year because, in the current season, Sugar mills had a delayed start of crushing by a fortnight or so.

Crushing operations in all the other states have also begun and slow the pace of crushing is picking up. About 60 Sugar mills are operating in other states and have produced 2.30 lakh tonne in this season to November 30, 2018, which in the previous season was 2.35 lakh tonne, when 91 mills were operating as on November 30, 2017.
