While gearing up for the upcoming sugarcane crushing season, the sugar industry expects the Indian government and the States to support the mills to promote mechanical harvesters so that 100 per cent mechanical harvesting could soon become a reality.   

“There is no option for mechanical harvesting of sugarcane and mills are gearing up to achieve the maximum target in the coming season. Mills are discussing the matter with the government (State and the Centre). The release of government subsidies for the harvesters should be accelerated,” West Indian Sugar Mills Association (WISMA) President BB Thombare told businessline.
