MINI SUGAR PLANT CAP: 40,000 TON/YEAR (2000 TCD)

Sugar is a universal sweetening agent and sugar – cane is the primary age – old source of it. Sugar cane is a very important industrial crop, accounting for about 60% of sugar production in the world.

From the times immemorial the word “sugar” is being used variously to express delight as well as distrust sarcastically. Sugar has been used in human diet through the functions of pancreas, depending on the quantity of sugar consumed. It is must for human diet when taken directly or indirectly through various carbohydrate containing food stuffs.

Sugar as sucrose is important for energy and metabolic activities.

When sugar was prepared from sugar cane in the beginning cannot be definitely stated, but brown sugar or gur (Jaggery) was the first known form of sugar manufactured from sugar cane as well as from wild date palm (phonnix sulvestris), palmyra palm (Borassus Flapellifar), toddy palm (Caryota urens) and other palms contains 12-14% sugar in their sap tapped for the purposes.

The main raw material for sugar production, i.e. sugarcane grows widely and efforts are constantly being made to bring more area under cultivation. The process chemicals required are also available. Sugarcane is grown in tropical and sub-tropical countries. Another sugar yielding material, the best is grown in temperate regions. The best is an important raw material in many European Countries. Of the total sugar production in the world, cane sugar constitutes nearly 55 per cent. Two third of the total cane sugar comes from Cuba, Brazil India, Australia, Mexico, China, Phillipines and U.S.A., South Africa, Argentina, Mauritius and Egypt are also important cane producers.

World sugar markets are largely controlled by the International sugar Agreement, which has been periodically ratified since 1931 by more that 40 countries. Quotas are assigned to exporting countries and adjusted from time to time depending on the price of sugar.

The sugar industry in India is second largest, next only to textiles. It has an investment of Rs. 1500 crores employs 3,00,000 people, besides the industry provides sustenance to 25 million cultivators. The contribution of industry to the public exchequer by way of excise, cess and taxes, is substantial. Also it is an important foreign exchange earner to the country.
