Sugarcane Info in  INDIA
India is 2 nd  largest producer of  sugarcane  next to Brazil
4 million  hectares  land  70 tonnes  per  hectare
India single largest producers of traditional cane sugar Sweetners, Khandsari and Gur
Various Products from Sugarcane Sugarcane Gur Molasses Baggasses -Most popular  in  India  - Its used in  Ayurvedic  medicine - Used as cattle  food Used in alcohol  industries Used in  production of  ethanol Used as  replacement of coal  in specialized boilers Used to produced elctricity Used for producing paper and ceiling
Situation
Agriculture perspective Around 355,520,000 tones per year 35 million farmers  46% - White Crystal  42% - Khandsari/Gur  10% - Juice
2.2 percent of country's  total cropped area. 25,000 kg of water to produce 100 kg of sugarcane. FAO report sharp shortfall of sugarcane in 2009.
World Sugar Balance 2008/09 (min tonne, raw value)‏ 2007/2008 (min tonne, raw value)‏ Production 161.527 168.611 Consumption 165.801 162.241
 
Industrial Perspective Sugar  is Rs. 30,000 crore industry. 50 million employment generated by  571 sugar factories.  2006 to 2008, 9.5 million tonnes of sugar exported.
ISMA, sugar production in 2008-09 is decline by 43 per cent to 14.7 million tones from 26.4 million tones in the previous year
 
Ethanol in Brazil Brazil is 2 nd  largest producer of ethanol. In 2008 Brazil produced 24.5 billion litres of ethanol  37.3% of world’s total ethanol used as fuel. 45% Brazilian vehicles uses ethanol.
2008 statistics Country Sugarcane production in tonnes Production of Ethanol in gallons Brazil 514,079,729 6,472.2 India 355,520,000 66.0
With second largest in sugarcane India can produce around  gallons per year. But.... 4476.0034
India imports 70% of its annual crude petroleum required which is approx. 110 million tons. Expenditure  on crude purchase is in the range of  Rs 1600 billion per year.
Ethanol made from sugar cane would be "100% green". Ethanol reduces emissions of carbon monoxide, toxic chemicals - resulting in better overall air quality.
Problems
Agricultural perspective Water is major problem. Farmers who have ready  access to cash or credit, irrigation and water supply, fertilizer and pesticides can farm  sugarcane. In Maharastra  - 60% of water is used to irrigate 500,000 hectares of sugarcane  - This means other crops get little water or no water at all.
India current sugar season with production 16-16.5 million tonnes, whereas demand is at 22 million tonnes ,  Larger part of the sugar cane was used for making gur . Industrial Perspective
The country has contracted to import 3.8 million tonnes of sugar so far 1.8 million tonnes have arrived Old and inefficient methods of production. Transport delay  Maximise the use of baggase .
 
India's cost of sugar production is one-fourth of that in Europe. India is the fourth lowest cost sugar producers
Solutions
 
Sustainable Sugarcane Initiative (SSI)‏ Improving the productivity of land, water, and labour reduce crop duration, providing  factories  a longer crushing season  produce at least 20% more sugarcane while reducing water by 30% and chemical inputs by 25%.
Farmers Innovation(Suresh Desai)‏ 75% water reduction, without  use of  chemicals and pesticides . 40 tonnes per acre can be raised to 60 tonnes Only 300 members in his club with approximately 1,500 acres of land.
‘ water channels (three)‏ water channels (six)‏ water channels (two)’
Growing Biodynamic Sugar cane in India Growing sugar cane  amongst rice paddy and vegetable crops Developed a way to open up  canes to allow more light , plus increase production for a smaller plant out . Decrease water wastage, kill monoculture, provide extra income.
Government
Government declared the new policy on August 20,1998 licenses for new factories, which shows that there will be no sugar factory in a radius of 15 km. Setting up of Indian Institute of Sugar Technology at Kanpur  In 1982, the sugar development fund was set up for modernization of the industry. Indian Government on Sugar Industry
