Sugarcane crushing season has ended in the state.

“ISMA has revised its all-India sugar production estimate for 2022-23 (after diversion into ethanol) to 328 lakh tonne, after considering diversion of about 40 lakh tonne of sugar equivalent into ethanol,” the association said.

In January, ISMA had projected production of 340 lakh tonne after diversion of 45 lakh tonnes towards ethanol.

Sugar production in 2021-22 stood at 358 lakh tonne post diversion towards ethanol.

“Crushing season in Maharashtra has ended at around 105 lakh tonnes, lower than our earlier estimate, due to unexpectedly lower cane yields owing to higher crop share and uneven distribution of rainfall,” ISMA said.

Meanwhile, in Uttar Pradesh, the sugar output for 2022-23 has been revised upward to 105 lakh tonne from 101 lakh tonne projected earlier.
