India stands second as a world producer of sugar but occupies the first place in the production of gur and
khandsari. The raw material used in this industry is bulky, and in haulage its sucrose content reduces. Where
should the mills be ideally located? In2010-11 there were over 662 sugar mills in the country spread over
Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Maharashtra, Karnataka, Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh and Gujarat along with Punjab,
Haryana and Madhya Pradesh. Sixty per cent mills are in Uttar Pradesh and Bihar. This industry is seasonal in

season.
