Sugarcane North

Sugarcane harvesting is in full swing in Uttar Pradesh. Crushing has begun in the mills. Late rainfall this year resulted in higher moisture content in cane, leading to a lower recovery of sucrose - an intermediary product. Sugarcane harvest has been delayed in Uttar Pradesh this year by nearly a month due to a tussle between farmers and sugar mills over cane prices.
