India has the largest area under sugar cane cultivation in the world. The yield per hectare is extremely low (about 70 tons), when compared to Java, Hawaii, Peru, Rhodesia (more than 150 tons per hectare). Even within the country, the yield is higher in South India than in North India.
ii. In India about one-third of the sugar cane production is utilised for making gur and khandsari. This causes shortage of raw material for the sugar mills.
iii. The sugar industry has a seasonal character and the crushing season normally varies between 4 and 7 months in a year. Thus, the mill and the workers remain idle for almost half of the year. This creates financial problems.
